26. Horizontal EOG were recorded from two electrodes placed on the outer canthi of both eyes. The EOG data were bandpass filtered (0.1-100 Hz), digitized at a sampling rate of 1000Hz, and recorded to a PC for offline analysis. Horizontal angular calibration was performed before and after the experiment.
