Proprioceptive integration in motor control

Muscle vibration alters both perceived limb position and velocity by increasing muscle spindle afferent firing rates. In particular the type Ia afferents are affected, which mainly encode muscle stretch velocity. Predictive frameworks of sensorimotor control, such as Active Inference and Optimal Feedback Control, suggest that velocity signals should inform position estimates. Such a function would predict that errors in perceived limb position and velocity should be correlated, but this predicti
