Probably not. Both right side up and upside down viewing are processed in the same circuit of interpretation (eye - lateral geniculate nucleus - visual cortex).

Probably not. Both right side up and upside down viewing are processed in the same circuit of interpretation (eye - lateral geniculate nucleus - visual cortex). The phenomenon you are talking about occurs because control processes that "flip" your interpretation of the upside down visual field are directly altering this circuit, and thus control is required again to reset it back to right side up interpretation. By contrast, walking forward is driven by central pattern generators directly in the spinal cord [0], while backward walking is a controlled process governed by the prefrontal and motor cortices, so there is no real overlap in the systems that would cause mutual interference. 0: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11728329/#:~:text=Central%20pattern%20generators%20are%20neuronal,that%20carry%20specific%20timing%20information https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11728329/#:~:text=Central%20....
