Cortical Correlates of Fitts’ Law [PDF]
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2011 Fitts' law describes the fundamental trade-off between movement accuracy and speed: It states that the duration of reaching movements is a function of target size and distance.

Is Fitts' law continuous in discrete aiming? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The lawful continuous linear relation between movement time and task difficulty (i.e., index of difficulty; ID) in a goal-directed rapid aiming task (Fitts' law) has been recently challenged in reciprocal performance.

Fitts’ Law in the Control of Isometric Grip Force With Naturalistic Targets [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 Fitts’ law models the relationship between amplitude, precision, and speed of rapid movements. It is widely used to quantify performance in pointing tasks, study human-computer interaction, and generally to understand perceptual-motor information ...

Hammering Does Not Fit Fitts' Law [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2017 While movement is essential to human wellbeing, we are still unable to reproduce the deftness and robustness of human movement in automatons or completely restore function to individuals with many types of motor impairment.

Evaluation of Child–Computer Interaction Using Fitts’ Law: A Comparison between a Standard Computer Mouse and a Head Mouse [PDF]
Sensors, 2021 This study evaluates and compares the suitability for child–computer interaction (CCI, the branch within human–computer interaction focused on interactive computer systems for children) of two devices: a standard computer mouse and the ENLAZA interface ...

On the measurement of movement difficulty in the standard approach to Fitts' law. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Fitts' law is an empirical rule of thumb which predicts the time it takes people, under time pressure, to reach with some pointer a target of width W located at a distance D.

Fitts Law as a Restrained Random Walk [PDF]
Comptes Rendus. MécaniqueFitts law, one of the rare quantitative relations in psychology, describes the time it takes for a human being to aim at and hit a target of a given size, starting from a given remote position.

Augmented feedback influences upper limb reaching movement times but does not explain violations of Fitts' Law [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 Fitts’ (1954: J Exp Psychol) classic theorem asserts that the movement time (MT) of voluntary reaches is determined by amplitude and width requirements (i.e., index of difficulty: ID).

Fitts' Law in early postural adjustments. [PDF]
Neuroscience, 2013 We tested a hypothesis that the classical relation between movement time and index of difficulty (ID) in quick pointing action (Fitts’ Law) reflects processes at the level of motor planning.

Hemodynamic activity is not parsimoniously tuned to index-of-difficulty in movement with dual requirements on speed-accuracy [PDF]
Frontiers in Human NeuroscienceBackgroundReaching movements are crucial for daily living and rehabilitation, for which Fitts' Law describes a speed-accuracy trade-off that movement time increases with task difficulty. This study aims to investigate whether cortical activation in motor-
