To Know Your Own Strength: Overriding Natural Force Attenuation

This paper describes a study conducted to observe the nature of force attenuation in the index finger. Force attenuation leads to the natural phenomenon of force escalation. The purpose of this study is to explore the ability to override this natural reaction thus eliminating force escalation by making subjects aware of the effect. This would also lead to the ability to produce more accurate force perception reactions.
