<div style="direction: ltr;">My PhD work was in an extension to a python implementation of actr in robotics simulator (Morse). There was a (limited) embodied humanoid robot and some vague work on extending actr to more advanced motor execution. Of particular
interest at the time, in order to support prediction, I was trying to achieve actr-time synchrony by using actr to trigger the robotics simulator clock. </div>

I'm intrigued by ACT-R, having just heard about it at a conference last week, and in particular, I'd like to find out if there is any work that uses ACT-R in conjunction with a musculoskeletal model of the human, while performing a specific activity (a human
operator). In other words, the cognitive processes of an operator of a system (welding, flight, athlete, clinical, military, etc) along with tracking of his/her gestures in conjunction with this system operation. I would like to couple </div>
