Abstract :
A study of sine-wave tracking is reported which illustrates the extent to which the predictability of the input and of the control device dynamics can be utilized with extended practice. Analysis of the error power spectra establishes the presence of a stable source of noise power in the operator´s output that has implications for deriving models of manual tracking performance.
