Enhancing astronaut performance using sensorimotor adaptability training
Astronauts experience disturbances in balance and gait function when they return to Earth. The highly plastic human brain enables individuals to modify their behavior to match the prevailing environment. Subjects participating in specially designed variable sensory challenge training programs can enhance their ability to rapidly adapt to novel sensory situations. This is useful in our applicati...
متن کاملIndividual predictors of sensorimotor adaptability
There are large individual variations in strategies and rates of sensorimotor adaptation to spaceflight. This is seen in both the magnitude of performance disruptions when crewmembers are first exposed to microgravity, and in the rate of re-adaptation when they return to Earth's gravitational environment. Understanding the sources of this variation can lead to a better understanding of the proc...
متن کاملAstronaut Lunar Field Exploration Training
Introduction: Astronauts have not explored the lunar surface since December 1972. NASA's new plans for the manned return to the Moon revolve around the construction and establishment of a lunar polar outpost starting around the year 2020. Therefore, in order to achieve NASA's new exploration objectives it seems prudent to dust off certain aspects of the Apollo playbook. The six Apollo lunar lan...
متن کاملJEB author selected for NASA astronaut training.
In years to come, few of us will remember what we were doing on the 6 June 2013, but Jessica Meir will never forget the day when she answered a call and heard Janet Kavandi, Director of Flight Crew Operations at the NASA Johnson Space Center, say, 'Jessica, second time is a charm'. Not only had her life changed forever but also her lifelong dream had finally come true. Kavandi was calling to te...
متن کاملEffects of training pre-movement sensorimotor rhythms on behavioral performance.
OBJECTIVE Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology might contribute to rehabilitation of motor function. This speculation is based on the premise that modifying the electroencephalographic (EEG) activity will modify behavior, a proposition for which there is limited empirical data. The present study asked whether learned modulation of pre-movement sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) activity can affect ...
