Moving Room experiment

The Moving Room experiment demonstrates how people rely on visual cues for balance. In this setup, a room's walls move while the floor stays still, making it appear as though the room is shifting. Despite the stable floor, participants often sway or try to balance as if they were falling, showing that their sense of stability depends heavily on visual information. This highlights how our brains interpret sensory input to maintain posture, sometimes prioritizing visual cues over other signals like inner ear balance or muscle feedback.
