The research area of motor control has become an increasingly multidisciplinary undertaking. Understanding the acquisition and performance of voluntary movements in biological and artificial systems requires the integration of knowledge from a range of disciplines such as neurophysiology, kinesiology, neuroscience, robotics, psychology, nonlinear dynamics, biomechanics and biology. Thisbook brings together researchers from this wide range of disciplines to discuss the control and coordination of processes involved in perceptually guided actions. Provides an in-depth discussion of a number of fundamental and often opposing ideas about the theoretical basis of motor control. No other book provides such a multidisciplinary approach to the problem of motor control INDICE: The Nature of Control. The Hand as a Complex System. Forty Years of Equilibrium-Point Hypothesis. Bridging of Models for Complex Movements in 3D. What Is Encoded in the Brain?- Perception and Action. Motor Learning.
