On the speed of the simplest voluntary movements
In man, individual muscle contractions can occur with remarkable speed, according to the physiologist Landois. The fastest movement that he could make with his right hand, imitating the writing of two letters n, showed that there were about 0.0564 seconds for each rise and fall; therefore, he could make about 18 movements per second.
When studying the speed of movements, we put in the foreground eye movements, the determination of the speed of which is important in many respects.
