I'm also wondering where the inertial measurement unit (IMU) is in there. People often forget about the inner ear a sensory organ. Moving body parts is one thing, but moving the body from here to there requires tight coupling of this this additional feedback. We clearly have a 3-axis gyro in each ear ;-)
- radarsat1 4y agoApart from the inner ear, there are also other feedback paths worth considering: muscular sensing, skin stretch sensing, even acoustic transmission along ligaments.
- maicro 4y agoYeah, proprioception in general is amazing. I always find it fun to do stuff like close my eyes, then quickly spread my arms apart, and just as quickly bring them back together and try to touch specific finger tips together; seems to be generally easiest with index and middle fingers for me. I also enjoy being able to extend that proprioception to tools - being able to feel the engagement of a screwdriver with a screw head, etc.
