    Summary

    This review explores using individualized visual stimuli, like avatars, to improve gait control in people with vestibular dysfunction. This approach enhances sensorimotor function and functional mobility.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Rehabilitation Medicine
    • Biomechanics

    Background:

    • Vestibular dysfunction frequently impairs gait control and functional mobility.
    • Traditional rehabilitation exercises have a history of improving gait in this population.
    • Emerging research investigates using specific visual stimuli to enhance gait control.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review gait control challenges in patients with vestibular dysfunction.
    • To provide a historical perspective on using visual displays for sensorimotor and gait control research.
    • To offer recommendations for future research in this area.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review focusing on vestibular dysfunction, gait control, and sensorimotor research.
    • Analysis of studies employing visual stimuli (e.g., avatars) for gait rehabilitation.
