Fitts' law is not continuous in reciprocal aiming.
It takes longer to accomplish difficult tasks than easy ones. In the context of motor behaviour, Fitts' famous law states that the time needed to successfully execute an aiming movement increases linearly with task difficulty. While Fitts' explicit formulation has met criticism, the relation between task difficulty and movement time is invariantly portrayed as continuous. Here, we demonstrate t...
متن کاملA General Optimal Control Model of Human Movement Patterns II: Rapid, Targeted Hand Movements (Fitts Law)
Rapid, targeted hand movements exhibit a regular movement pattern described by Fitts’ law. We develop a model of these movements in which this movement pattern results from an optimal control model describing rapid hand movements and a utility model describing the speed/accuracy trade-off between moving the hand rapidly to the target and hitting the target accurately. The optimal control model ...
متن کاملCalculation of Totally Optimized Button Configurations Using Fitts' Law
This paper addresses the problem of optimal placement and configuration for a set of buttons on a graphical user interface (GUI). We present an optimization algorithm that reduces the average time necessary for pointing device motions. Fitts’ law (Fitts 1954) is used to estimate the transfer time for cursor movements between buttons. Numerous studies in the literature focus on the verification ...
متن کاملEvaluation of a modified Fitts law BCI target acquisition task in able and motor disabled individuals
A brain–computer interface (BCI) is a communication system that takes recorded brain signals and translates them into real-time actions, in this case movement of a cursor on a computer screen. This work applied Fitts’ law to the evaluation of performance on a target acquisition task during sensorimotor rhythm-based BCI training. Fitts’ law, which has been used as a predictor of movement time in...
متن کاملExtending Fitts' law to a three-dimensional pointing task.
An attempt was made to extend Fitts' law to a three-dimensional movement (pointing) task to enhance its predictive performance in this domain. An experiment was conducted in which 10 subjects performed three-dimensional pointing movements under the manipulation of target size, distance to target and direction to target. As expected, the duration of these three-dimensional movements was rather v...
