Agraphesthesia has been attributed to impairment of the ability to detect more rudimentary directionality of lines written on the skin (directional cutaneous kinesthesia). We examined a patient who had a dissociation between preserved perception of line directionality and the loss of graphesthesia for letters and numbers.

Proceedings of the TEI '16: Tenth International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction, 2016
Gaze signals, frequently used by the sighted in social interactions as visual cues, are hardly accessible for low-vision and blind people. A concept is proposed to help the blind people access and react to gaze signals in face-to-face communication. 20 blind and low-vision participants were interviewed to discuss the features of this concept.

Tactile Vocabulary for Tactile Displays
Second Joint EuroHaptics Conference and Symposium on Haptic Interfaces for Virtual Environment and Teleoperator Systems (WHC'07), 2007Two experiments were conducted to identify a set of tactile patterns that could be recognized with high accuracy when presented using a tactile display on the back. These patterns could then serve as tactons to communicate simple commands and directions. The tactile display comprised a 4-by-4 array oftactors that was worn across the back.

Tactile graphics (TG) can help people with visual disabilities access visual concepts. However, the number of TGs available to users is considerably limited because they need to be created by designers and teachers of the visually impaired (TVIs) with extensive experience. High-quality images can be transformed into TGs.

Proceedings of the 19th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility, 2017
Tactile overlays with audio annotations can increase the accessibility of touchscreens for blind users; however, preparing these overlays is complex and labor intensive. We introduce TacTILE, a novel toolchain to more easily create tactile overlays with audio annotations for arbitrary touchscreen graphics (e.g., graphs, pictures, maps).

We discuss experiments on two individuals in whom specific textures (e.g., denim, wax, sandpaper, silk, etc.) evoked equally distinct emotions (e.g., depression, embarrassment, relief, and contentment, respectively). The test/retest consistency after 8 months was 100%. A video camera recorded subjects' facial expressions and skin conductance responses (

- Tactile Reading: Tactile Understanding
2018As pointed out already by the French philosopher Dennis Diderot in the late 18th century, sight is a very efficient and elegant sense (Diderot, 1749).

Tactile sensing utilizing human tactile perception
2011 IEEE World Haptics Conference, 2011Human tactile perception incorporates two important characteristics - self-reference and bidirectionality. Self-reference is an important factor when evaluating tactile sensations. Bidirectionality contributes to sensing capability enhancement. In this paper, a tactile sensor including self-reference and bidirectionality is presented.

Archives of Oral Biology, 1965
Abstract Relative tactile sensitivities were determined with Semmes-Weinstein aesthesiometers at several oral sites and on the hand. The upper lip was demonstrated to be more sensitive to tactile stimulation than all other sites tested; and the tongue and lower lip were more sensitive than the incisive papilla. The finger and palm were less sensitive
