slide1. 2. Eyes Wide Shut ---Batting and Thinking 1<br>
slide2. The Experiment Batters hit from pitching machine (FB & CH)
Liquid crystal glasses with electronic shutters
Three conditions
NO: shutter open for full trajectory
R+150: shutter closed 150 ms after release
A-150: shutter closed 150 ms prior to arrival
High-speed cameras recorded location of impact on bat, with goal of hitting on sweet spot 2<br>
slide3. Typical Trajectories 3 See Michael Richmond

slide4. Results
R+150:
batter is much less effective
A-150
same as NO
Conclusions
Last 150 ms provides no useful information
Adair hypothesis confirmed
Batter could just as well close his eyes 4 NO A-150 R+150<br>
