Embodiment and Humanoid Robotics
The concept of embodimentSacheintragembodiment (i.e. of a bodily basis) of human cognitionSacheintragcognition has a long history in philosophy and... -
Performance Indicators of Humanoid Posture Control and Balance Inspired by Human Experiments
Posture control and maintaining balance are fundamental elements of humanoid robot control and have a significant impact for the performance of... -
Human-Likeness Indicator for Robot Posture Control and Balance
Similarly to humans, humanoid robots require posture control and balance to walk and interact with the environment. In this work posture control in... -
Benchmarking Human Likeness of Bipedal Robot Locomotion: State of the Art and Future Trends
The difficulty of defining standard benchmarks for human likeness is a well-know problem in bipedal robotics. This chapter reviews methods and... -
Human Sense of Balance
This overview describes human posture control mechanisms combining biomechanics with neural control and sensory feedback aspects. The control enables... -

Human-Inspired Humanoid Balancing and Posture Control in Frontal Plane
Human balancing can be modeled for the sagittal and frontal planes using double inverted pendulum (DIP) biomechanics representations. The DIP... -
Human-Like Sensor Fusion Implemented in the Posture Control of a Bipedal Robot
Posture control represents the basis for many human sensorimotor activities such as standing, walking or reaching. It involves inputs from joint... -
Benchmarking Human-Like Posture and Locomotion of Humanoid Robots: A Preliminary Scheme
The difficulty in defining standard benchmarks for human likeness is a well-known problem in bipedal robotics. This paper proposes the conceptual... -
Current Oculomotor Research Physiological and Psychological Aspects
This volume contains the proceedings of the Ninth European Conference on Eye Movements (ECEM 9), held in Ulm, Germany, on September 23-26, 1997. ECEM... -
Contribution of visual velocity and displacement cues to human balancing of support surface tilt
Vision helps humans in controlling bipedal stance, interacting mainly with vestibular and proprioceptive cues. This study investigates how postural...

Akustisch evozierte Potentiale (AEP) in Klinik und Praxis
Dieses Buch gibt eine einfache Einführung in die Anfertigung und Befundung von akustisch evozierten Potentialen (AEP), wie sie routinemäßig in der... -
Potential roles of force cues in human stance control
Human stance is inherently unstable. A small deviation from upright body orientation is enough to yield a gravitational component in the ankle joint...

Sensorimotor Control of Human Dynamic Behavior in Space Implemented into a Hominoid Robot
To what extent can we claim nowadays that we understand sensorimotor control of human dynamic behavior in space? We try here to answer this question... -
Idiopathic spasmodic torticollis is not associated with abnormal kinesthetic perception from neck proprioceptive and vestibular afferences
Proceeding from recent evidence for a sensory involvement in the pathophysiology of idiopathic spasmodic torticollis (ST), we asked whether the...

Neck proprioception compensates for age-related deterioration of vestibular self-motion perception
Vestibular functions are known to show some deterioration with age. Vestibular deterioration is often thought to be compensated for by an increase...

What is pathological with gaze shift fragmentation in Parkinson's disease?
Oculomotor dysfunction in Parkinson's disease (PD) is mainly characterized by a fragmentation of memory-guided gaze shifts (target is reached by...

Sensory Contributions to the Control of Stance
We present the outline of a dual kinetic-kinematic postural control model. It is based on concepts of inter-sensory interaction (sensor fusion) which... -
Lokal-trilineare Bewegungskorrektur in der MR-Mammographie
Kontrastmittel-gestützte MR-Mammographie wird zur Diagnose von Mammakarzinomen in Fällen unklarer Aussagen von Ultraschall und Röntgenuntersuchung...
