Kinematic and Electrophysiological Characteristics of Pedal Operation by Elderly Drivers during Emergency Braking

Kinematic and Electrophysiological Characteristics of Pedal Operation by Elderly Drivers during Emergency Braking

Age-related decline in lower limb motor control may cause errors in pedal operation when driving a car. This study aimed to clarify the kinematics and electrophysiological characteristics of the pedal-switching operation associated with emergency braking in the case of elderly drivers. The participa...
