- ABSTRACT: This paper adresses the question relative
to the role of sensory feedback in rhythmic tasks. We study the properties
of a sinusoidally vibrating wedge-billiard as a model for 2-D bounce juggling.
If this wedge is actuated with an harmonic sinusoidal input, it has been shown
that some periodic orbits are exponentially stable. This paper explores an
intuitive method to enlarge the parametric stability region of the simplest
of these orbits. Accurate processing of \emph{timing} is proven to be an important
key to achieve frequency-locking in rhythmic tasks.
