Recent research has focused on spatial coding of other moving agents or moving objects (Stangl et al., 2020). Oscillatory power in the medial temporal lobe of a seated observer is sensitive to the spatial location of a watched moving other individual (Stangl et al., 2020). The hippocampus also encodes predictions about when a moving target will hit a boundary on a 2D display (Polti et al., 2021). Using a 2D display and joystick, monkey dorsal anterior cingulate cortex activity predicts a moving target’s future location. (Yoo et al., 2021). However, it remains untested whether the encoding syst
