          Curve Walking Reveals Cognitive Decline in Elderly

          Researchers have discovered that curved path walking is more revealing of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in older adults than traditional straight path walking tests. By employing a depth camera to analyze gait during these walks, the study identified 50 gait markers that varied significantly between healthy older adults and those with MCI.

          Step-Synced Vision: Walking Rhythm Alters Visual Perception

          Researchers discovered a novel link between walking rhythms and changes in visual perception, demonstrating that our visual sensitivity fluctuates in sync with our steps. This study found that during the swing phase of a step, our perception sharpens and reaction times improve, whereas footfalls lead to a dulling of visual sensitivity.

          Robotic Breakthrough Mimics Human Walking Efficiency

          Researchers achieved a significant advancement in robotics by replicating human-like variable speed walking using a musculoskeletal model. This model, steered by a reflex control method akin to the human nervous system, enhances our understanding of human locomotion and sets new standards for robotic technology.

          Dual-Task Walking Performance May Be an Early Indicator of Accelerated Brain Aging

          The ability to dual-task walk and talk begins to decline around the age of 55. This decline is a result of changes to cognition and underlying brain function rather than due to physical changes associated with aging.

          The Brain Searches for the Best Way to Move the Body

          When learning how to coordinate a new movement, the nervous system first explores and evaluates many different coordinated patterns. With experience, the nervous system then adapts specific aspects of movements and simultaneously decreases pattern variability.
