Exploring speed–accuracy tradeoff in reaching movements: a neurocomputational model

The tradeoff between speed and accuracy of human movements has been exploited from many different perspectives, such as experimental psychology, workspace design, human–machine interface. This tradeoff is formalized by Fitts’ law, which states a linear relationship between the duration and the difficulty of the movement. The bigger is the required accuracy in reaching a target or farther is the target, the slower has to be the movement. A...
