We are looking for volunteers to take part in experiments involving:

  • moving in virtual reality
  • interacting with robot interfaces
  • and other movement tasks.

All the experiments are non-invasive and have been approved by the Columbia IRB.

  • be right-handed
  • be aged 18-60
  • have normal vision or wear glasses that make your vision normal
  • have no neurological or other problems that affect your control of movement

Payment

Funds will be loaded on to a charge card  issued by Bank of America. You will be given the card after the experiments and it take 3 working days for the funds to be loaded.
