A research team at the University of Osaka has identified a crucial brain region involved in motor learning during reaching ...

An ultra-light robotic prosthetic hand has been developed that enables both precision fingertip control and shape-adaptive ...

Examples of stereotypic movements include hand flapping, body rocking, head banging, and self-biting. A diagnosis is only given if the repetitive movement causes distress in a child and leads to ...

"Every time I make a movement it learns," De Lagarde says ... writing position involves seamless integration between body and brain. Hand-based tasks that we perform with barely a thought ...

Armed with that knowledge and a webcam attached to its head, the robot was able to “follow” a human operator’s body and hand movements and eventually mimic them. This process, referred to as ...

A research team at The University of Osaka has identified a crucial brain region involved in motor learning during reaching movements.

By decoding the activity of spinal motoneurons (the nerve cells that control muscle movement), they can predict the hand movements a user intends to make. This information is then used to control ...
