How does vergence cause Listing's plane to rotate?
i.e. when looking up by 'a' degrees the angular velocity (wS) tilts by a/2.
Horizontal vergence follows a full angle rule
i.e. the angular velocity during vergence (wV) tilts by 'a' degrees

| Recall that Listing's law requires the half angle rule i.e. when looking up by 'a' degrees the angular velocity (wS) tilts by a/2. Horizontal vergence follows a full angle rule i.e. the angular velocity during vergence (wV) tilts by 'a' degrees |
