Taking research as a tool to learn how new technology can develop new diagnosis and treatment methods in the physical field, takes place the education in motor sciences. On one hand, current research has shed light into novel methods to improve motor performance for athletes as well as for people learning new motor gestures. On the other hand it has also helped to improve treatment efficiency for people suffering motor cerebral lesions like: cerebrovascular attack (CVA) and cerebral palsy. This doctoral thesis addresses different protocols to analyze motor gestures and brain oscillations through visual perception.Our brain encompasses a changing symphony of oscillating activity throughout our lives. Up to the time we are born, we are ready to feel and move to interact with our world. Our senses develop rapidly and we start to perceive the world and learn. We visually perceive and process big amounts of information on a daily basis. At the same time we see movements from ourselves and from others in order to communicate and interact with our environment. We watch the world move. Moreover, from the links that exist between motor and sensory systems in human beings we may approach individual motor activity as a loop between a control (brain) over the effectors (muscles) which act, perceive and send the information back to the control source.The present group of works presented in this doctoral thesis is based on the correlation between human brain scalp activity, measured by means of electroencephalography (EEG) recordings, visual perception and its interpretation through different approaches. / Doctorat en Sciences de la motricité / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished
