>> Anticipation and prediction are so important in getting a leg-up in the real world. As a kid sometimes I would look around the room and pick an object to touch or pick up. Then I'd close my eyes and see if I could do it. This might involve taking several steps or even turning at the end before reaching out. There is some feedback from the feet but it's mostly open loop without vision. I could visualize my position along the way - a form of prediction. This skill is still useful when I need to turn off a light before crossing a room or opening a door :-)
