POSTURAL CONTROL IN HEALTHY YOUNG ADULTS WITH AND WITHOUT CHRONIC MOTION SENSITIVITY
International Journal of Physiotherapy, 2016 Background: Postural control requires complex processing of peripheral sensory inputs from the visual, somatosensory and vestibular systems. Motion sensitivity and decreased postural control are influenced by visual-vestibular conflicts.The purpose of ...

Cerebellar transcranial direct current stimulation improves adaptive postural control [PDF]
, 2017 Objective Rehabilitation interventions contribute to recovery of impaired postural control, but it remains a priority to optimize their effectiveness. A promising strategy may involve transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of brain areas involved

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Postural stability when walking and exposed to lateral oscillations
, 2012 The role of accelerations encountered in daily life in causing postural instability or falls is not well understood, especially when walking. Lateral oscillations disturb walking stability during train journeys but it is desirable that passengers feel ...

Revista Brasileira de Cineantropometria e Desempenho Humano, 2013 Impairments in the foot sensitivity in the elderly cause changes in locomotion and postural control that may increase fall risk. Understanding the use of foot afference in the elderly may help preventing loss of mobility and fall.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

Postural control assessment in students with normal hearing and sensorineural hearing loss
Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2015 INTRODUCTION: Children with sensorineural hearing loss can present with instabilities in postural control, possibly as a consequence of hypoactivity of their vestibular system due to internal ear injury.OBJECTIVE: To assess postural control stability in ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This work presents a state‐adaptive Koopman linear quadratic regulator framework for real‐time manipulation of a deformable swab tool in robotic environmental sampling. By combining Koopman linearization, tactile sensing, and centroid‐based force regulation, the system maintains stable contact forces and high coverage across flat and inclined surfaces.

Effects of visually simulated roll motion on vection and postural stabilization
Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2007 Background Visual motion often provokes vection (the induced perception of self-motion) and postural movement. Postural movement is known to increase during vection, suggesting the same visual motion signal underlies vection and postural control. However,

Influences of visual feedback indicator scales on human upright postural control
, 2013 Human upright postural control is highly related to visual information. In order to explore the influence of visual feedback on static upright postural control, postural sway of eight healthy young adults was investigated under visual feedback ...
