Abstract

Spatial navigation is a process in which the human body builds a complex cognitive map based on its own position and external environment, so as to realize correct navigation. Space navigation capability is closely related to flight safety. In recent decades, the air force at home and abroad has been researching and practicing on flight space disorientation, but the serious flight accidents caused by flight space disorientation are still very serious. Eocentric and allotypic central reference frames are commonly used reference frames in spatial navigation. Most current studies believe that humans can use these two reference frames to extract spatial information, perform route planning, and thus navigate to the correct destination. With the advent of advanced neuroimaging techniques, more and more studies have found that humans activate specific brain regions when using different spatial navigation reference frames, and that there are specific neural conduction pathways for spatial navigation information. However, there is no systematic review of the activation and nerve conduction of spatial navigation. Therefore, this paper integrates the spatial navigation reference frame with the neuroimaging technology, and summarizes the activation and information transmission of the brain regions corresponding to the spatial navigation reference frame, so as to explore the relationship between the human navigation and the spatial reference frame. Based on the existing research, the use of appropriate means, such as resting-state fMRI, can provide a basis for selecting suitable people to engage in spatial navigation related work such as flight, and also has practical significance for developing personalized spatial navigation ability training programs for pilots.
