The effect of variable force field strength on motor adaptation and subsequent generalization: An exploratory study to test the performance of the ARMANDA robot in a motor learning study

Humans continuously adapt to new sensorimotor environments, wherein we create motor commands to execute movements properly, such as picking up the telephone or riding a bike. Generalization of motor commands means that a learned movement, such as grasping a bottle, transfers to similar but new environments, such as grasping a carton of milk....
