Perceptual learning by mental imagery

Michael Herzog, Fred Mast, Elisa Tartaglia, Laura Bamert

In a bisection discrimination task, two vertical outer lines delineate an interval which is bisected by a centre line. Observers indicate whether this centre line is closer to the left or right outer line. Performance in this task improves strongly with tr ...

Perceptual learning by mental imagery

Michael Herzog, Fred Mast, Elisa Tartaglia, Laura Bamert

In perceptual learning, performance improves when stimuli are presented over and over again. In a bisection task, for example, two vertical outer lines delineate an interval which is bisected by a centre line. Observers indicate whether this centre line is ...

Mental rotation of body parts and non-corporeal objects in patients with idiopathic cervical dystonia

Silvio Ionta

Mental rotation of body parts is performed through inner simulation of actual movements, and is likely to rely upon cortical and subcortical systems (e.g. motor and premotor areas and basal ganglia) involved in motor planning and execution. Studies indicat ...

Optimization of a Single Phase Ultrasonic Linear Motor

Yves Perriard, José Fernandez Lopez, Markus Flückiger

Piezoelectric ultrasonic motors are superior to electromagnetic micromotors, because their efficiency remains theoretically constant during miniaturization. However, the still relatively recent technology has a considerable unexploited optimization potenti ...

Dynamic Updating of Distributed Neural Representations using Forward Models

Aude Billard, Eric Sauser

In this paper, we present a continuous attractor network model, which we hypothesize will give some suggestion of the mechanisms underlying several neural processes, such as velocity tuning to visual stimulus, sensory discrimination, sensorimotor-transform ...

Comparative study and selection criteria of linear motors

Samuel Chevailler

Initially, linear motors have been particularly dedicated to transportation systems. Nowadays, linear motors are meant to replace a system using a rotating motor and a transmission to realize a linear movement. With linear motors the performances increase ...

closed loop electrical muscle stimulation in spinal cord injured rehabilitation

Reymond Clavel, Patrick Métrailler

The effect of motor training using closed loop controlled Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) on motor performance was studied in 5 spinal cord injured (SCI) volunteers. The subjects trained 2 to 3 times a week during 2 months on a newly developed reha ...

Influence of imagined posture and imagery modality on corticospinal excitability

Silvio Ionta

Single pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was used to test the assumption that kinesthetic imagery of action is more 'motor' than visual imagery of action. We assessed corticospinal excitability during motor imagery of a thumb-palm opposition mo ...

A contribution to energy saving in induction motors

Electric motors consume over half of the electrical energy produced by power stations, almost the three-quarters of the electrical consumption in industry and almost the half of commercial electrical consumption in developed countries. Motors are by far th ...
