Abstract
This study attempts to clarify the head and eye movement control mechanisms in the brain. It especially, focuses on the effect of aging on head and eye coordination. We mainly discussed the effect of aging on peak head and eye velocity, and the bead and eye stability of aged subject after having focused on the target. Both peak bead and eye velocity were maintained, but head and eye movement was less stable than that of younger subjects.
