Coriolis effect (perception)

For the effect studied in physics, see Coriolis effect.

In psychophysical perception, the Coriolis effect is the misperception of body orientation and induced nausea due to the Coriolis force (also referred to as the Coriolis illusion).[1][2][3][4] The Coriolis effect is a concern for pilots, where it can cause extreme disorientation.[5][6][7][8]
