Multi-Finger Interaction and Synergies in Finger Flexion and Extension Force Production
The aim of this study was to discover finger interaction indices during single-finger ramp tasks and multi-finger coordination during a steady state force production in two directions, flexion, and extension. Furthermore, the indices of anticipatory adjustment of elemental variables (i.e., finger forces) prior to a quick pulse force production were quantified. It is currently unknown whether th...

متن کاملAge-related changes in multi-finger interactions in adults during maximum voluntary finger force production tasks.
This study aimed to continue our characterization of finger strength and multi-finger interactions across the lifespan to include those in their 60s and older. Building on our previous study of children, we examined young and elderly adults during isometric finger flexion and extension tasks. Sixteen young and 16 elderly, gender-matched participants produced maximum force using either a single ...
متن کاملFinger force vectors in multi-finger prehension.
In a majority of studies on grasp, only normal forces were measured and only when a zero torque was exerted on a hand-held object. This study concerns finger force vectors during the torque production tasks. Subjects (n=8) stabilized a handle with an attachment that allowed for change of external torque from -1.5 to 1.5 Nm. Forces and moments exerted by the digit tips on the object were recorde...
متن کاملDo synergies improve accuracy? A study of speed-accuracy trade-offs during finger force production.
We explored possible effects of negative covariation among finger forces in multifinger accurate force production tasks on the classical Fitts's speed-accuracy trade-off. Healthy subjects performed cyclic force changes between pairs of targets "as quickly and accurately as possible." Tasks with two force amplitudes and six ratios of force amplitude to target size were performed by each of the f...
