Fig. 8. Kinematics of the headscape (HS) joint in two behavioral
states. The SP joint is immobilized in this condition (see inset at
bottom). (A) Trajectories showed two-dimensional expansion in both states.
During walking, both antennae concentrated at lower positions. (B)
Power-spectra of horizontal (H) and vertical (V) components in the two states.
Peaks at <2 Hz decreased in walking for both components. These spectra were
obtained from the time-series whose trajectories are shown in A. (C) Mean
angular ranges (bars) and central positions (symbols) of both antennae during
pausing and walking (N=4). Vertical central positions for both
antennae were significantly lowered as observed in the SP joint free
condition (see Fig. 7).
Horizontal working ranges were slightly but significantly narrowed during
walking. Inset indicates two rotation axes of the free HS joint.
