This article surveys the literature on human–robot object handovers. A handover is a
collaborative joint action, where an agent, the giver, gives an object to another agent, the …

During object manipulation tasks, the brain selects and implements action-phase controllers
that use sensory predictions and afferent signals to tailor motor output to the physical …

In this paper, we analyze and compare existing human grasp taxonomies and synthesize
them into a single new taxonomy (dubbed “The GRASP Taxonomy” after the GRASP project …

Altered motor behaviour is commonly reported in Autism Spectrum Disorder, but the
aetiology remains unclear. Here, we have taken a computational approach in order to break …

Motor planning colloquially refers to any process related to the preparation of a movement
that occurs during the reaction time prior to movement onset. However, this broad definition …

A viable hypothesis to explain the compromised motor ability of children with Developmental
Coordination Disorder (DCD) suggests a fundamental deficit in their ability to utilize internal …

Although psychology is the science of mental life and behavior, little attention has been paid
to the means by which mental life is translated into behavior. One domain in which links …

Different from any other motor behavior text on the market, Motor Learning and
Development, Third Edition With HKPropel Access, combines two subdisciplines of motor …

Physical contact events often allow a natural decomposition of manipulation tasks into action
phases and subgoals. Within the motion primitive paradigm, each action phase corresponds …

The motor mirror neuron system supports imitation and goal understanding in typical adults.
Recently, it has been proposed that a deficit in this mirror neuron system might contribute to …
