Control Systems Group (CSG) conference 2007
Perceptual control theory (PCT) is a theory of behavior with wide applications in fields ranging from psychology and sociology to robotics, biology, and engineering.
Perceptual control theory is "a model of how a human being must be internally organized to accomplish this process called controlling. It is a technical theory that involves neurology and physiology and mathematical theories of control systems developed some 60 years ago by engineers." (William T Powers)
