Specificity and coherence of body representations [PDF]
, 2009 Bodily illusions differently affect body representations underlying perception and action. We investigated whether this task dependence reflects two distinct dimensions of embodiment: the sense of agency and the sense of the body as a coherent whole.

Across the Threshold: A Somaesthetic Approach to the Design of Extended Realities
, 2023 The prospect that extended realities (XR) will become a seamless part of our everyday environment comes ever closer with the development of mixed reality headsets. These devices allow a blending of digital objects with the user’s actual spatial environment.

Ethics, space, and somatic sensibilities: comparing relationships between scientific researchers and their human and animal experimental subjects [PDF]
, 2011 Drawing on geographies of affect and nature-society relations, we propose a radical rethinking of how scientists, social scientists, and regulatory agencies conceptualise human and animal participants in scientif ic research. The scientific rationale for

Moving in an environment of induced sensorimotor incongruence does not influence pain sensitivity in healthy volunteers: A randomised within-subject experiment [PDF]
, 2014 Objectives: It has been proposed that in the same way that conflict between vestibular and visual inputs leads to motion sickness, conflict between motor commands and sensory information associated with these commands may contribute to some chronic pain ...

Hot‐Plugging Logic‐Enabled Valves
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2025.This miniaturized, soft, hot‐plugging, logic‐enabled valve enhances soft pneumatic robotics by eliminating the need for cutting tubing. Its two pneumatic actuators regulate operating pressure through a lower control pressure, achieving an eightfold gain at 1 Hz. By adjusting control pressures, it executes different logical functions, such as converting

Hold my Heart and Breathe with Me [PDF]
Proceedings of the 9th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, 2016 We present two tangible somaesthetic designs. The first design resembles a real heart, which allows users to experience their own heart's behavior by providing haptic feedback. Thus, users holding the heart design are able to feel their heartbeat in their hands. The second design is a stuffed animal, which is capable to breathe in synchrony with a user.
