About

A. Capelli’s research centers on spatial cognition and sensorimotor integration, with a particular focus on how humans navigate and orient themselves in space. Their most-cited work, "Spatial linear navigation: Is vision necessary?" (2013, 9 citations), challenges assumptions about the primacy of vision in navigation by demonstrating that non-visual cues—such as proprioceptive and vestibular signals—can support effective linear path integration. This contribution has implications for understanding multisensory processing and for designing assistive technologies for visually impaired individuals. While their citation count is modest, the work’s conceptual depth has influenced discussions in cognitive neuroscience and human–computer interaction. Capelli’s research bridges experimental psychology and applied science, offering insights into the adaptive flexibility of the human spatial system. Their findings underscore the brain’s ability to rely on alternative sensory modalities, a theme that continues to inform studies on spatial memory and navigation in both healthy and clinical populations.
