Stretching the skin immediately enhances perceived stiffness and gradually enhances the predictive control of grip force

open access: yeseLife, 2020
When manipulating objects, we use kinesthetic and tactile information to form an internal representation of their mechanical properties for cognitive perception and for preventing their slippage using predictive control of grip force.

The Impact of Experiential Augmented Reality Applications on Fashion Purchase Intention [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Utilizing the stimulus-organism-response (SOR) model, the purpose of this study is to examine the effects of augmented reality (AR) (specifically augmentation) on consumers’ affective and behavioral response and to assess whether consumers’ hedonic ...

Sensory-augmented computing: wearing the museum's guide [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Micro, 2001
Personal computers have not lived up to their name. Most machines sit on a desk and interact with users for only a small fraction of the day. Notebook computers have become smaller and faster, enabling mobility but the same staid user paradigm persists.

Bridging a sensory gap between deaf and hearing people–A plea for a situated design approach to sensory augmentation

open access: yesFrontiers in Computer Science, 2022
Deaf and hearing people can encounter challenges when communicating with one another in everyday situations. Although problems in verbal communication are often seen as the main cause, such challenges may also result from sensory differences between deaf

The Architectural Model as Augmenting a Sensory Ethnography

open access: yesThe Design Journal, 2021
This study explores the effectiveness of the architectural model as a means of implementing a sensory ethnographical research methodology. An architectural model, constructed as part of a wider design research approach, became the visual probe in a site-specific participatory ‘place-event’ with field experts.

Cell phone based balance trainer

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2012
Background In their current laboratory-based form, existing vibrotactile sensory augmentation technologies that provide cues of body motion are impractical for home-based rehabilitation use due to their size, weight, complexity, calibration procedures ...

Modulation of sensory neuron mechanotransduction by PKC- and nerve growth factor-dependent pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Many sensations of pain are evoked by mechanical stimuli, and in inflammatory conditions, sensitivity to such stimuli is commonly increased. Here we used cultured sensory neurons as a model of the peripheral terminal to investigate the effects of ...

A Vibrotactile and Plantar Force Measurement-Based Biofeedback System: Paving the Way towards Wearable Balance-Improving Devices

open access: yesSensors, 2015
Although biofeedback systems have been used to improve balance with success, they were confined to hospital training applications. Little attempt has been made to investigate the use of in-shoe plantar force measurement and wireless technology to turn ...

Digitally embodied lifespan neurocognitive development and Tactile Internet: Transdisciplinary challenges and opportunities

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
Mechanisms underlying perceptual processing and inference undergo substantial changes across the lifespan. If utilized properly, technologies could support and buffer the relatively more limited neurocognitive functions in the still developing or aging ...
