Trunk balance control during beam walking improves with the haptic anchors without the interference of an auditory-cognitive task in older adults

•Both anchors and cognitive task reduced step speed during beam walking.•Haptic anchors reduced trunk acceleration amplitude in the frontal plane.•The cognitive task did not affect the use of the haptic anchors. Prior studies have shown that older adults reduced trunk acceleration when walking on a...
