According to Fitts' law, human movement can be modeled by analogy to the transmission of
information. Fitts' popular model has been widely adopted in numerous research areas …

A stochastic optimized-submovement model is proposed for Fitts' law, the classic logarithmic
trade-off between the duration and spatial precision of rapid aimed movements. According to …

This article presents a tentative theoretical framework for the study of asymmetry in the
context of human bimanual action. It is emphasized that in man most skilled manual …

Motor Control is a complex process that involves the brain, muscles, limbs, and often
external objects. It underlies motion, balance, stability, coordination, and our interaction with …
