McLeod, Peter; Reed, Nick; Dienes, Zoltan – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2006
The generalized optic acceleration cancellation (GOAC) theory of catching proposes that the path of a fielder running to catch a ball is determined by the attempt to satisfy 2 independent constraints. The 1st is to keep the angle of elevation of gaze to the ball increasing at a decreasing rate. The 2nd is to control the rate of horizontal rotation…
