Dynamic motor imagery (dMI) is a motor imagery task associated with movements partially mimicking those mentally represented. As well as conventional motor imagery, dMI has been typically assessed by mental chronometry tasks. In this paper, an instrumented approach was proposed for quantifying the correspondence between upper and lower limb oscillatory movements performed on the spot during the dMI of walking vs.

This paper presents the design and experimental characterization of a 28 nm Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) Analog Front-End (AFE) for fast-tracking small-diameter Muon Drift-Tube (sMDT) detectors. The device exploits an innovative analog signal processing that allows a strong increase in the detection rate of events and significantly reduces the impact of fake/pile-up events, which often corrupt incident radiation energy events. The proposed device converts the input charge coming from incident radiations into voltage by a dedicated Charge-Sensitive Preamplifier (CSPreamp).
