TL;DR: In order to disentangle the contributes of visual and proprioceptive feedback in the induction of sensorimotor plasticity, the Illusion Box of Syndactyly is developed that, through an ad hoc algorithm, produces an index-middle finger illusory fingers webbing.

TL;DR: This work experimentally compared how children and capuchin monkeys (Sapajus spp.)—nonhuman primates well known for their manual dexterity and for being curious and highly manipulative—acquire new cause–effect relations through spontaneous manual exploration of a new environment.

TL;DR: This study focused on the development of a test bench to assess the performance of a wearable system for respiratory monitoring and a GUI has been developed in order to guide the volunteer in the execution of selected movements during the experimental session.

TL;DR: The working principle of FBG sensors is reported, how wearables based on these sensors can estimate RR, their main applications, and the main open challenges and opportunities.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors compared two different supplementary feedback contents concerning the status of a robotic limb in 2-DoF configuration: one encoding the Cartesian coordinates of the end-effector of the robotic arm and another encoding the robot joints angles (i.e., Joint-space feedback).
