Neural control of rhythmic arm movements
In this paper we present an approach to robot arm control based on exploiting the dynamical properties of a simple neural network oscillator circuit coupled to the joints of an arm. The entrainment and input/output properties of the oscillators are used to perform a variety of tasks with the same architecture, without any modeling of the arm or its environment. The approach is implemented on tw...
متن کاملParietal cortex and spatial-postural transformation during arm movements.
Cells in the parietal motor areas 5, MIP, and 7b have spatially tuned activity during movements. Lesions, however, do not disrupt visual reaching or learned nonspatial movement selection. The role of such parietal cells in sensorimotor coordinate transformations is unclear. The present experiment investigates whether the parietal motor areas are concerned with the following: 1) the transformati...
متن کاملRecognition of Arm Movements
This paper describes a method for detection, tracking and recognition of lower arm and hand movements from color video sequences using a linguistic approach driven by motion analysis and clustering techniques. The novelty of our method comes from (i) automatic arm detection, without any manual initialization, foreground or background modeling, (ii) gesture representation at different levels of ...
متن کاملControl of eye movements and spatial attention.
Several lines of evidence suggest that planning eye movements and directing visuospatial attention share overlapping brain mechanisms. This study tested whether spatial attention can be enhanced by altering oculomotor signals within the brain. Monkeys performed a spatial attention task while neurons within the frontal eye field, an oculomotor area within prefrontal cortex, were electrically sti...
متن کاملControl of Wrist and Arm Movements of Varying Difficulties
Control of Wrist and Arm Movements of Varying Difficulties. (December 2010) Jason Baxter Boyle, B.S., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Charles H. Shea Three experiments compared wrist and arm performance in a cyclical Fitts’ target task. The purpose of Experiment I was to determine if movement kinematics differed for wrist/elbow flexion/extension movements to targets of var...
