  "summary": "The speed-accuracy trade-off is a hallmark feature of motor behavior, yet its underlying causes in cyclic, whole-body movements such as walking remain to be understood. In discrete, point-to-point movements, reduced accuracy at higher speeds is typically attributed to signal-dependent motor noise and an inability to use online error correction. Walking, however, may be governed by additional…",
