We first developed somatosensory stimulator using electromagnet and installed this in a rotatory stimulation device. As a result, we completely got synchronization with movement of a chair. We confirmed a safety that did not give pain or unpleasantness for a subject and used it for an experiment of afterward.The gain of a vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) showed a tendency to decrease after 40 minutes exposure of somatosensory stimulation both in the same-and opposite direction of the rotator. Stimulation.So far It was postulated-that somatosensory input was not so important to maintain balance system. In the present study, VOR was significantly influenced by somatosensory input. The current result suggested that somatosensory stimulation should be considered when we establish the rehabilitation method for the patients with vestibular disorder.

我们首先开发了一种使用电磁铁的体感刺激器，并将其安装在旋转刺激装置中。结果，我们完全与椅子的运动同步。我们确认了一种安全性，不会给受试者带来疼痛或不愉快，并将其用于随后的实验。前庭眼反射（VOR）的增益显示出在旋转器的同方向和反方向的体感刺激暴露40分钟后下降的趋势。刺激。迄今为止，人们认为躯体感觉输入对维持系统平衡并不重要。在本研究中，VOR显着影响体感输入。本研究结果提示，在制定前庭功能障碍患者的康复治疗方法时，应考虑体感刺激。
