| Abstract | There is conflicting evidence in the literature as to whether sensory-motor performance degrades on going from a 1D to a 2D task. We undertook a study to investigate more closely the fundamental questions: Is random tracking more difficult in 2D than in 1D? If so, is the increased difficulty due to the increased velocity or the increased dimensionality of the 2D task? The study involved 16 normal subjects tracking 2D random targets and two orthogonal 1D equivalents using a floor-mounted joystick. To investigate the speed versus dimensionality question, a version of the standard 2D task was devised which used a scaled target signal with the same average velocity and displacement as the 1D task. Tracking performance (mean absolute error) was found to degrade by 41% (p<.001) on going from the 1D to the scaled 2D task, This demonstrates that tracking is indeed more demanding in 2D than 1D and that this can be unequivocally attributed to the increased dimensionality of the 2D task. Most of the poorer performance on the 2D task could be attributed to an extra 59 ms in tracking delay and is considered most likely due to the extra degree of freedom reducing the ability of the sensory-motor system to offset inherent delays in the system by using prediction. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
