Research Summary

Humans’ diverse physical movements range from daily activities, (e.g., standing, waking, running, and jumping) to more complicated exercises such as throwing and movements with tools (bicycle, racket, etc.). Our project is a collaboration of expertise from four labs, toward optimizing and expanding humans’ potential for movement performance, from scientific and engineering perspectives.
