Bimanual proprioception: are two hands better than one?
Information about the position of an object that is held in both hands, such as a golf club or a tennis racquet, is transmitted to the human central nervous system from peripheral sensors in both left and right arms. How does the brain combine these two sources of information? Using a robot to move participant's passive limbs, we performed psychophysical estimates of proprioceptive function for...

متن کاملBimanual training after stroke: are two hands better than one?
Functional recovery of the paretic upper extremity eludes the majority of patients post stroke. Although many tasks require the coordinated participation of both hands, rehabilitation strategies for the most part have focused on the paretic limb. This article reviews the behavioral basis of bimanual coordination both in health and after stroke hemiparesis and reviews clinical research studies t...
متن کاملWhen two hands are better than one: reduced timing variability during bimanual movements.
Within-hand variability was reduced on a repetitive tapping task when individuals tapped with 2 hands in comparison to single-handed tapping. When the total variability was decomposed into central timing and peripheral implementation components (A.M. Wing & A.B. Kristofferson, 1973), the bimanual advantage was attributed to decreased central variability. The improved consistency does not requir...
متن کاملTwo Hands Are Better Than One (up to constant factors)
We study the difference between the standard seeded model of tile self-assembly, and the “seedless” two-handed model of tile self-assembly. Most of our results suggest that the two-handed model is more powerful. In particular, we show how to simulate any seeded system with a two-handed system that is essentially just a constant factor larger. We exhibit finite shapes with a busy-beaver separati...
