In the context of object recognition, it has been suggested that the dorsal visual stream is primarily implicated in attending to objects in near space, whereas the ventral visual stream is primarily implicated in attending to objects in far space [2], [7], [8], which fits quite well with the dual visual system hypothesis [9].
When subjects reach for a far object with a tool, it is possible to show that far space is remapped as near.

In the same vein, clinical dissociations between attending to objects in near and far space have been reported.

This study explored whether the rightward deviation for bisecting lines in far space extends to tasks where a ball is aimed between two goal-posts.
So far, space has been resistant to this approach.
In contrast, if the own body were to serve as a more fundamental ruler for visual space perception, which is the hypothesis we propose here, one would expect its effect to be equal for near space and far space.
