AB  - Normal  activities  of  daily  life  (such  as  running)  can  be  associated  with  head  velocities  of  up  to  550  degrees  per  second  (deg/sec),  head  accelerations  of  up  to  6,000  deg/sec2,  and  frequency  content  of  head  motion  from  1  to  20  Hz.1,2  Only  the  vestibular  system  can  detect  head  motion  over  this  range  of  velocities,  accelerations,  and  frequencies.  Additionally,  the  latency  of  the  vestibulo-ocular  reflex  (VOR)  has  been  reported  to  be  as  short  as  5  to  7  msec.3,4  In  contrast,  ocular  following  mechanisms,  such  as  smooth  pursuit,  generate  slower  eye  velocities  (∼60  deg/sec),  have  relatively  long  latencies  (up  to  100  msec),5,6  and  fail  at  frequencies  exceeding  1  Hz.7  For  subjects  with  vestibular  loss  that  has  not  been  compensated  adequately,  head  movements  can  significantly  limit  participation  in  activities  of  daily  life.
