Abstract

Our principal finding from this study is that there were changes at the level of brain electrical activity (EEG), in time-frequency domain, during states of perceptual detection of postural instability of the Virtual Person. The Morlet wavelet transform was applied to examine phase-locking transition within 10-40 Hz frequencies range as a function of change in the focused attention during perceptual tasks aimed to detect non-stable postural dynamics. It was found that high energy 40 Hz time-frequency cluster at fronto-central area was preceded by 20 Hz signal activity and followed by a 30 Hz signal cluster when subjects detect non-stable postures. This fortifies the use of the time-frequency analysis as an invaluable tool for detection, estimation and tracking the event-related EEG frequency distributions.
