Résumé
Postural control on single and double seesaws was investigated in young healthy adults required to stand as still as possible on two side-by-side seesaws favoring pitch motion and lying on two separate force platforms. The device offers the possibility to get associated or dissociated seesaws and, if dissociated, to induce asymmetric patterns for the centers-of-pressure (CP) under both left and right feet by using different radii for the two seesaws. Substituting a parallelepiped volume to one seesaw offering a firm contact to one foot is also possible. The results indicated that dissociating the two seesaws led to increased resultant CP (CP
