Introduction: Visual feedback plays a crucial role in goal-directed tasks, facilitating movement preparation and execution by allowing individuals to adjust and optimize their movements. Enhanced movement preparation and execution help to increase neural activity in the brain. However, our understanding of the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying different types of visual feedback during task preparation and execution remains limited. Therefore, our study aims to investigate the impact of different types of visual feedback on movement-related brain activity in goal-directed tasks, in order to identify more effective forms of visual feedback in goal-directed tasks.
Methods: The electroencephalographic (EEG) data from 18 healthy subjects were collected under both continuous and intermittent visual feedback conditions during a goal-directed reaching task. We analyzed the EEG characteristics of the event-related potential (ERP), event-related synchronization/desynchronization (ERS/ERD) in all subjects during motor preparation and execution of the goal-directed reaching task.
Results: The results showed that, the amplitude of motor-related cortical potential (MRCP) in subjects was larger in the intermittent visual feedback condition compared to the continuous visual feedback condition during motor preparation, and the amplitude was largest at the CPz electrode. Additionally, mu-ERD was more pronounced during both motor preparation and execution under intermittent visual feedback condition.
Discussion: In conclusion, intermittent visual feedback enhanced the characteristics of subject's brain activation and cortical excitability in the time and time-frequency domains.

Assistive technologies for people with visual impairments (PVI) have made significant advancements, particularly with the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and real-time sensor technologies. However, current solutions often require PVI to switch between multiple apps and tools for tasks like image recognition, navigation, and obstacle detection, which can hinder a seamless and efficient user experience. In this paper, we present NaviGPT, a high-fidelity prototype that integrates LiDAR-based obstacle detection, vibration feedback, and large language model (LLM) responses to provide a comprehensive and real-time navigation aid for PVI.

Background: Public health programs and policies can positively influence food environments. In 2016, a voluntary National Healthy Food and Drink Policy was released in New Zealand to improve the healthiness of food and drinks for hospital staff and visitors. However, no resources were developed to support policy implementation.

Background: Origami is a popular activity among preschool children and can be used by therapists as an evaluation tool to assess children's development in clinical settings. It is easy to implement, appealing to children, and time-efficient, requiring only simple materials-pieces of paper. Furthermore, the products of origami may reflect children's ages and their visual-motor integration (VMI) development.

Amputation results in a loss of sensory feedback and alterations in gait biomechanics, including co-contractions of antagonist muscles about the knee and ankle, and reduced pelvic obliquity range-of-motion and pelvic drop. SCS can restore sensation in the missing limb, but its effects on muscle activation and gait biomechanics have not been studied in people with lower-limb amputation.
