Abstract
The present invention is directed to systems, devices and methods for stimulating perceived motion, and more particularly to stimulating perceived motion in three axes. The invention is further directed to stimulating such perceived motion when accompanied by visual stimuli. The invention is further directed to utilizing as few as two distinct pairs of electrodes to administer electrical stimulation to generate the perceived motion. The invention is further directed to systems, devices and methods to minimize side effects while utilizing electrical currents create the perceived motion.
