Participate in a movement learning study with robotics

Come play a game with a robot! The Neuromechanics Lab needs volunteers for a study on effort and motor learning. We are interested in how effort during a movement changes how you learn. The insights from this study will help us design optimize rehabilitation and movement training. 

In the game, you use a robotic handle to guide a cursor to a series of targets. 

You must: 

  • Be between 18–35 years old 
  • Be right-handed 
  • Have no movement impairments that could impact your ability to complete a reaching task 
  • Have no upper-arm injuries within the last year

The study will involve about one hour of testing in our campus laboratory (1B21 ECSL, 1111 Engineering Drive, Boulder, CO 80309). We will schedule a 90-minute visit (in case of delays) at your convenience.

You will be compensated for your time and effort with an Amazon gift card.
