Robotic self-exploration and acquisition of sensorimotor skills [PDF]
, 2019 Die Interaktion zwischen Maschinen und ihrer Umgebung sollte zuverlässig, sicher und ökologisch adequat sein. Um das in komplexen Szenarien langfristig zu gewährleisten, wird eine Theorie adaptiven Verhaltens benötigt.

Eye Movements in Parkinson’s Disease and Inherited Parkinsonian Syndromes
Frontiers in Neurology, 2017 Despite extensive research, the functions of the basal ganglia (BG) in movement control have not been fully understood. Eye movements, particularly saccades, are convenient indicators of BG function.

Sensorimotor Integration by Corticospinal System [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2016 The corticospinal (CS) tract is a complex system which targets several areas of the spinal cord. In particular, the CS descending projection plays a major role in motor command, which results from direct and indirect control of spinal cord pre-motor interneurons as well as motoneurons.

Sensorimotor control in Parkinsonism [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1973 Performance on two sensorimotor tasks was compared between 28 patients with Parkinsonism and 28 age and sex matched controls. One task involved complex motor activity (the Bead and Tapper test) and the other simple motor activity with a verbal component (the Letter Cancellation test). Both tests had three levels of complexity.

Individual predictors of sensorimotor adaptability [PDF]
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015 There are large individual variations in strategies and rates of sensorimotor adaptation to spaceflight. This is seen in both the magnitude of performance disruptions when crewmembers are first exposed to microgravity, and in the rate of re-adaptation when they return to Earth's gravitational environment. Understanding the sources of this variation can

Stiffening the human foot with a biomimetic exotendon
Scientific Reports, 2021 Shoes are generally designed protect the feet against repetitive collisions with the ground, often using thick viscoelastic midsoles to add in-series compliance under the human.

Visual Neurons in the Superior Colliculus Discriminate Many Objects by Their Historical Values
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018 The superior colliculus (SC) is an important structure in the mammalian brain that orients the animal toward distinct visual events. Visually responsive neurons in SC are modulated by visual object features, including size, motion, and color. However, it

Hand Grasping Synergies As Biometrics
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2017 Recently, the need for more secure identity verification systems has driven researchers to explore other sources of biometrics. This includes iris patterns, palm print, hand geometry, facial recognition, and movement patterns (hand motion, gait, and eye ...

The structure of sensorimotor explanation [PDF]
Synthese, 2017 The sensorimotor theory of vision and visual consciousness is often described as a radical alternative to the computational and connectionist orthodoxy in the study of visual perception. However, it is far from clear whether the theory represents a significant departure from orthodox approaches or whether it is an enrichment of it.

Cortical signatures of vicarious tactile experience in four-month-old infants
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2019 The human brain recruits similar brain regions when a state is experienced (e.g., touch, pain, actions) and when that state is passively observed in other individuals.
