Summation of visual and mechanosensory feedback in Drosophila flight control [PDF]
, 2004 The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster relies on feedback from multiple sensory modalities to control flight maneuvers. Two sensory organs, the compound eyes and mechanosensory hindwings called halteres, are capable of encoding angular velocity of the ...

Intention Tremor and Deficits of Sensory Feedback Control in Multiple Sclerosis: a Pilot Study [PDF]
, 2014 Background Intention tremor and dysmetria are leading causes of upper extremity disability in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The development of effective therapies to reduce tremor and dysmetria is hampered by insufficient understanding of how the distributed,

Ideas on sensory feedback in hand prostheses [PDF]
Prosthetics & Orthotics International, 1979 Development of systems for sensory feedback in hand prostheses has not been as successful as that of modern prosthesis control systems. The discrepancy is partly caused by an insufficient analysis of the concept of sensory feedback and by neglect of knowledge on the physiology of kinesthesis.

BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2010 Background The users of today's commercial prosthetic hands are not given any conscious sensory feedback. To overcome this deficiency in prosthetic hands we have recently proposed a sensory feedback system utilising a "tactile display" on the remaining ...

Feedback Control as a Framework for Understanding Tradeoffs in Biology [PDF]
, 2014 Control theory arose from a need to control synthetic systems. From regulating steam engines to tuning radios to devices capable of autonomous movement, it provided a formal mathematical basis for understanding the role of feedback in the stability (or ...

Basic and supplementary sensory feedback in handwriting [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 The mastering of handwriting is so essential in our society that it is important to try to find new methods for facilitating its learning and rehabilitation. The ability to control the graphic movements clearly impacts on the quality of the writing. This control allows both the programming of letter formation before movement execution and the online ...

Sensory feedback and the impaired motor system [PDF]
Journal of Medical Systems, 1990 A group design study was carried out using regulated feedback to enhance functional recovery in stroke patients. Patients trained on three computerized tasks aimed at improving guided limb motion in the hemiplegic arm. The therapeutic group was able to make use of the sensory feedback to outperform the control group in each of the three tasks.

Coupling the neural and physical dynamics in rhythmic movements [PDF]
, 1996 A pair of coupled oscillators simulating a central pattern generator (CPG) interacting with a pendular limb were numerically integrated. The CPG was represented as a van der Pol oscillator and the pendular limb was modeled as a linearized, hybrid spring ...
