Abstract
Turning strategies on the Sarcos Treadport, a linear treadmill locomotion interface, are developed and compared in a tight maneuvering task. A rate-control strategy employing sidestep is compared to a proportional-control strategy employing head gaze and torso trigger. The proportional-control strategy was clearly found to permit more precise maneuvering
