Author: Jack M. Loomis
Jack M. Loomis is Research Professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, Department of Psychology.
My research is concerned with the perceptual and cognitive processes underlying complex behavior. The basic research problems I am working on include visual space perception, visual control of locomotion, and spatial cognition, including navigation. Much of my work involves virtual environment technology, a tool that greatly expands the possibilities for experimental research
