Sentence examples for pointing movement from inspiring English sources

Half a century ago, Paul Fitts first discovered that the time necessary to complete a pointing movement (MT) linearly increases with the amount of information (ID) necessary to specify the target width (W) relative to the distance (D).

A double-square framing system was selected to minimize the vibration of the setup caused by the speeded pointing movement to the monitor.

The orientation of the subjects' trunk just prior to the pointing movement was similar in each condition (Figure S2; p>0.05).

Moving the discussion toward a computational approach, the execution of a natural pointing movement requires a series of processes that seem to be based on the optimality principle [24], [25].

For the present pointing movement in the sagittal plane, the optimal control strategy based on energetic minimization [26] would produce the unconstrained pointing velocity recorded in the Preliminary experiment.

Because the data are collected online as the pointing movement is being performed, this also reduces the potential for memory-related artefacts that can arise from post-hoc judgments or two-interval forced choice tasks.

These pointing movements were executed from an upright standing position.

Two subject groups participated in Experiment 1: group 1 adapted shoulder pointing movements, and group 2 adapted wrist pointing movements to a 0.5 gain of display.

Experiment 2 followed a similar design except that group 1 adapted head pointing movements and group 2 adapted arm pointing movements.

More specifically, pointing movements may be planned to minimize the variance of the final hand position.
