Subjects in a rotating environment that reach to point at a target make errors consistent with the Coriolis force [http://jn.physiology.org/content/83/6/3230.full.pdf+html acting upon their arms].
A rotating subject that has reached equilibrium with their rotation finds that upon tilting the head the feeling is that a rotation is occurring about the new axis of the head, when in fact that is not occurring at all. http://books.google.com/books?id=_6hymYAgC6MC&pg=PA175&lpg=PA175&dq=VESTIBULAR+CORIOLIS+ILLUSION&source=bl&ots=Nv8fRQGIUr&sig=32jT7VepXv9mVOa0WmJDvYqpJuk&hl=en&ei=0j1eTZT5HoassAO4kdDSCA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CDYQ6AEwBQ#v=onepage&q=VESTIBULAR%20CORIOLIS%20ILLUSION&f=false

==Vestibular system==
{{Image|Vestibular system of ear.PNG|right|250px|Vestibular system in the human ear.}}
The ''vestibular system'' of the ear senses balance, motion, and body position. The three ''semicircular canals'' observe acceleration in the three planes of motion: ''pitch'' (nod ''yes''), ''yaw'' (twist your head ''no''), and  ''roll'' (pivot head from left to right shoulder without twisting). The ''otolith organs'', that is, the ''utricle'' and the ''saccule'' detect linear acceleration.
