Augmenting Perceived Softness of Haptic Proxy Objects Through Transient Vibration and Visuo-Haptic Illusion in Virtual Reality

IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2020
In this article, we investigate the effects of active transient vibration and visuo-haptic illusion to augment the perceived softness of haptic proxy objects.

“Octave illusion” or “Deutsch’s illusion”?

Psychological Research Psychologische Forschung, 2008
The "Deutsch's illusion" occurs in most people when a dichotic pair of tones spaced an octave apart is presented repeatedly in alternation, so that when the right ear receives the high tone, the left ear receives the low tone, and vice versa. The illusory percept consists typically in a single low tone heard at one ear alternating with a single high ...

Illusions within an Illusion

Perception, 2015
Effect of perceptual inversion on illusion figures seen monocularly was explored using Ponzo and Muller-Lyer stimuli. It was found that inversion nullified the Ponzo effect but not the Muller-Lyer effect. This suggests that the determinants of the two illusory effects differ in their origin.

The discoloration illusion

Visual Neuroscience, 2006
The discoloration illusion, a new visual phenomenon, is described. This phenomenon originates from the juxtaposition of eight chromatic parallel contours on a white background, creating a luminance gradient and enclosing a light red region. Under these conditions, the inner region appears white: the light red discolors and appears white with both ...

The Okuma Illusion: A New Illusion of Leaning

Perception, 2012
A new illusion demonstrating the perception of tilted objects is reported. Physically, all the objects in a rotated image should tilt at the same degree. We, however, found that the tilt of objects in a rotated frame is perceived differently. We tested several objects and found that this phenomenon is especially noticeable when an element in the image ...
