The finding was made by cognitive neuroscientist Ryota Nishizono and colleagues. Nishizono, of NTT Communication Science Laboratories in Atsugi, Japan, was previously a professional racing cyclist so he has some experience evaluating the relationship between speed and blinking.
He noticed that there was a significant void in literature on blinking behavior in active humans despite the fact that under extreme conditions like motor racing or cycling, “a slight mistake could lead to life-threatening danger,” Nishizono said.
Jonathan Matthis, a neuroscientist at Northeastern University in Boston who studies human movement and was not involved in the research,“We think of blinking as this nothing behavior,” he said, “but it’s not just wiping the eyes. Blinking is a part of our visual system.”
