About ACL@NCU
Founded in 2007, the Action and Cognition Laboratory (ACL) focuses on exploring the characteristics of human action control and the underlying brain mechanisms. Ongoing research topics in ACL include:

|
Facilities
![]() |
To observe and record human movements in 3D space, a 6 camera PhaseSpace motion capture system is available in ACL, which could digitize effector positions online for analyzing kinematics. To study hand-object interactions, ACL is also equipped with a set of Plato Visual Occlusion Spectacles, which are able to change rapidly between transparent and light scattering status for optimally control timing of the real visual object. |

As for examining the brain mechanism, ACL has been cooperating with Integrated Brain Research Unit from Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Imaging Center of the National Yang-Ming University, and the Taiwan Mind and Brain Imaging Center of the National Cheng-Chi University for fMRI techniques to explore brain areas of spatial navigation, central executive functions, and motor learning processes. We have also been collaborating with Brain Research Centre from National Chiao Tung University for combining virtual reality with analysis of EEG time-frequency information. |
