Researchers have discovered how the brain keeps time for precise movements, revealing a neural “hourglass” mechanism between ...

Whether speaking or swinging a bat, precise and adaptable timing of movement is essential for everyday behavior. Although we ...

The study of aiming movements encompasses the intricate balance between rapid, pre-planned motor commands and slower, corrective adjustments that ensure accuracy. In goal-directed tasks, the initial ...

Muscle synergies represent coordinated activation patterns of groups of muscles that simplify the control of complex movements. This concept suggests that the central nervous system reduces the ...

Scientists have demonstrated that the motor cortex is necessary for the execution of corrective movements in response to unexpected changes of sensory input but not when the same movements are ...

The field of motor adaptation and development has long been a subject of intense study, particularly in the context of the ...

People often take walking for granted. We just move, one step after another, without ever thinking about what it takes to ...

MPFI Scientists have discovered how two brain areas work together like an hourglass to flexibly control movement timing.

Movement in animals is complex. Little has been known about how spinal inhibitory interneurons work to silence other neurons and related muscle groups in coordination with the active muscle groups ...

As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...

Electric motors, which convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, play an essential role in a variety of industrial and robotics applications. Given that electric motors account for ...
