A Combined Method for the Programming of Saccadic Eye Movements / Yakushev A.G. // Vestnik Moskovskogo Universiteta. Seriya 1. Matematika. Mekhanika. 2011. № 1. P. 70-73 [Moscow Univ. Mech. Bulletin. Vol. 66, No 1, 2011. P. 19-21]. A saccade is a quick spasmodic movement of an eye formed by the central nervous system before the beginning of the movement and is realized by the oculomotor muscles as a programmed movement. These muscles are modeled as viscoelastic contractile elements. The programmed control is defined as a time function and is considered as a sum of four components (tonic, static, kinematic, and dynamic) under the following assumption: when a muscle contracts, the corresponding antagonist muscle becomes elongated.
Key words: saccade, eye, extraocular muscles, movement programming.
