Vision enables us to perceive light, color, shape, depth, and movement through our eyes, helping us navigate and understand our surroundings.

Gustatory

Vestibular

The vestibular sense provides information about balance, spatial orientation, and movement through structures in the inner ear.

Proprioception is our awareness of body position and movement in space, provided by receptors in muscles, tendons, and joints.
