Humans are adept at using multiple tools, often switching between them even when each involves distinct and potentially conflicting motor demands. This study investigated how different features of a tool influence the formation of distinct motor memories during dual adaptation to opposing visuomotor perturbations. Using an immersive virtual reality (VR) setup, participants performed an aiming task in which they launched a ball toward a target using virtual tools, each consistently associated with a different visuomotor rotation. We manipulated tool features across three groups: one in which tools differed only in colour (Colour Control), one in which they differed in shape but involved similar operational dynamics (Motor Congruent), and one in which they differed in both shape and mode of operation (Motor Incongruent). A control group that adapted to a single perturbation with a single tool at a time was also included. Only the Motor Incongruent group demonstrated robust dual adaptation and clear aftereffects, comparable to those observed during single-tool learning. These results suggest that distinct modes of tool operation play a critical role in supporting the formation and retention of separate internal models during sensorimotor adaptation.
