A modular planar robotic manipulandum with end-point torque control.
(2009-07-30)
Robotic manipulanda are extensively used in investigation of the motor control of human arm movements. They permit the application of translational forces to the arm based on its state and can be used to probe issues ranging ...
The statistics of natural hand movements.
(2008-06)
Humans constantly use their hands to interact with the environment and they engage spontaneously in a wide variety of manual activities during everyday life. In contrast, laboratory-based studies of hand function have used ...
Statistics of natural movements are reflected in motor errors.
(2009-09)
Humans use their arms to engage in a wide variety of motor tasks during everyday life. However, little is known about the statistics of these natural arm movements. Studies of the sensory system have shown that the statistics ...
Composition and decomposition in bimanual dynamic learning.
(2008-10-15)
Our ability to skillfully manipulate an object often involves the motor system learning to compensate for the dynamics of the object. When the two arms learn to manipulate a single object they can act cooperatively, whereas ...
