An Informational Algorithm as the Basis for Perception-Action Control of the Instantaneous Axes of the Knee

Traditional locomotion studies emphasize an optimization of the desired movement trajectories while ignoring sensory feedback. We propose an information based theory that locomotion is neither triggered nor commanded but controlled. The basis for this control is the information derived from perceiving oneself in the world. Control therefore lies in... Read More»
