Abstract
Motor coordination is realized by the nervous system at different leve ls. Concepts about the coordination within a limb define the controlle d parameter in cartesian or joint space, whereas concepts about the co ordination between limbs stress the temporal control of schemas. Motor deficits of neurological patients point to the role of the different motor areas in motor coordination.
