Cues for haptic perception of compliance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
For the perception of the hardness of compliant materials, several cues are available. In this paper, the relative roles of force/displacement and surface deformation cues are investigated.

Tactile perception of thermal diffusivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The thermal diffusivity of an object is a parameter that controls the rate at which heat is extracted from the hand when it touches that object. It is an important feature for distinguishing materials by means of touch.

Kinaesthetic and cutaneous contributions to the perception of compressibility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Compressibility or hardness of objects is an important aspect in haptic perception. Both cutaneous and kinaesthetic information are used for the perception of compressibility. In this paper, the relative role of these contributions is investigated.

Haptic perception of gravitational and inertial mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Mass can be perceived in different ways: statically, through gravitational cues; dynamically, through inertial cues; or a combination of both. This article investigates the relationship between these modes of perception.

Seeing and feeling volumes : the influence of shape on volume perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The volume of common objects can be perceived visually, haptically or by a combination of both senses. The present study shows large effects of the object's shape on volume perception within all these modalities, with an average bias of 36%.

Perception, Mind-Independence, and Berkeley [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
I discuss a thesis that I call 'The Appearance of Mind-Independence', to the effect that, to the subject of an ordinary perceptual experience, it seems that the experience involves the awareness of a mind-independent world.

Haptic perception of volume and surface area of 3-D objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Haptic perception of volume (Experiment 1) and surface area (Experiment 2) was studied with tetrahedrons, cubes, and spheres as stimuli (2–14 cm3). The results of Experiment 1 showed that subjects perceived a tetrahedron to be larger in volume than ...

Tactual perception of material properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper reviews tactual perception of material properties such as roughness, compliance, coldness and friction. Psychophysical functions relating physical properties to perception are discussed, as well as discrimination thresholds.

Illusory rotation in the haptic perception of a moving bar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Haptic matching of the orientation of bars separated by a horizontal distance leads to large systematic deviations (eg Kappers and Koenderink, 1999 Perception 28 781–795).
