Nystagmus can be predicted or simulated by means of mathematical models. If the simulation seems to be successful the parameters of the model may be used for an adequate description of the nystagmic response. Considering the biocybernetics of the vestibulo-oculomotor system a minimal extent of computer-nystagmometry is determined. The efficient application of this method requires the knowledge of standard values for the involved parameters. These values have been determined for tests with sinusoidal rotatory stimulation. Age dependent nominal values can be computed and are compared with actual results. The differences are divided by the standard deviation; values less than 2 are supposed to be normal. Thus a first step of automatic assessment of the vestibular system's function becomes possible.
