- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>Constant Error: The differences between the reference force/displacement and<br /><br>the reproduced force/displacement of the subject indicates the capability of a<br /><br>subject to perceive and control the required forces/displacements.<br /><br><br /><br>Variability: the standard deviation of the reproduced force/displacement<br /><br>indicates the capability of the subject to control the required<br /><br>force/displacement. </p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>Maximum force: The maximum force indicates the physical capacities of a<br /><br>subject. We will investigate whether the physical capacities influence the<br /><br>results of the primary study parameters (constant error and variability).<br /><br><br /><br>The subjects are requested to fill in NASA TLX questionnaires and a body map<br /><br>(paper version). We want to monitor and document the subjective feelings of the<br /><br>subject during the experiments and relate this to the found objective data. </p><br>
