Visual enhancement of touch in spatial body representation.

abstract：:Owing to the flexibility and redundancy of neuromuscular and skeletal systems, humans can trace the same hand trajectory in space with various arm configurations. However, the joint trajectories of typical unrestrained movements tend to be consistent both within and across subjects. In this paper we propose a method t...
