Abstract

Auditory-Motor Synchronization (AMS) has recently attracted attention. It coordinates motor actions with rhythmic auditory stimuli, applying to dancing, running, playing music, communicating, and conversations. Several brain regions are involved in this mechanism, such as the primary motor cortex (M1), supplementary motor area (SMA), premotor area (PMA), and basal ganglia. Temporal prediction and timing control are necessary for AMS execution. Medical applications include Parkinson’s disease (PD) and stroke cases for rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS). Future developments in collaboration with artificial intelligence (AI) are expected. AI can learn human AMS patterns and allow robots to synchronize similar movements with more natural micro-movements.
