متن کاملReaching within Video-Capture Virtual Reality: Using Virtual Reality as a Motor Control Paradigm
We have developed a virtual reality (VR) system that integrates a three-dimensional tracking device with a video-capture VR platform to record upper limb movements. The influence of target velocity on planning and execution of reaching movements was studied in five healthy subjects. Our initial results suggest that a target's velocity is considered when planning an interceptive action and that ...
