A pilot study into reaching performance after severe to moderate stroke using upper arm support. [PDF]
Stroke effects millions of people each year and can have a significant impact on the ability to use the impaired arm and hand. One of the results of stroke is the development of an abnormal shoulder-elbow flexion synergy, where lifting the arm can cause ...

Compensatory arm reaching strategies after stroke: induced position analysis. [PDF]
After stroke, movement patterns of the upper limb (UL) during functional arm reaching change to accommodate altered constraints. These compensatory movement control strategies do not, however, have a one-to-one mapping with posttraining outcomes. In this

Unifying Speed-Accuracy Trade-Off and Cost-Benefit Trade-Off in Human Reaching Movements
Two basic trade-offs interact while our brain decides how to move our body. First, with the cost-benefit trade-off, the brain trades between the importance of moving faster toward a target that is more rewarding and the increased muscular cost resulting ...

Conditioning vs. Excitation Time for Estimating Impedance Parameters of the Human Arm [PDF]
The human arm’s capability to alter its impedance has motivated multiple developments of robotic manipulators and control methods. It provides advantages during manipulation such as robustness against external disturbances and task adaptability ...

Multiple parietal reach regions in humans: cortical representations for visual and proprioceptive feedback during on-line reaching [PDF]
Reaching toward a visual target involves at least two sources of information. One is the visual feedback from the hand as it approaches the target.

Reaching in clutter with whole-arm tactile sensing [PDF]
Clutter creates challenges for robot manipulation, including a lack of non-contact trajectories and reduced visibility for line-of-sight sensors. We demonstrate that robots can use whole-arm tactile sensing to perceive clutter and maneuver within it, while keeping contact forces low.

Physical demand but not dexterity is associated with motor flexibility during rapid reaching in healthy young adults [PDF]
Healthy humans are able to place light and heavy objects in small and large target locations with remarkable accuracy. Here we examine how dexterity demand and physical demand affect flexibility in joint coordination and end-effector kinematics when ...
