Cognitive map formation in the blind is enhanced by three-dimensional tactile information [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 For blind individuals, tactile maps are useful tools to form cognitive maps through touch. However, they still experience challenges in cognitive map formation and independent navigation.

A thalamocortical pathway for fast rerouting of tactile information to occipital cortex in congenital blindness. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2019 In congenitally blind individuals, the occipital cortex responds to various nonvisual inputs. Some animal studies raise the possibility that a subcortical pathway allows fast re-routing of tactile information to the occipital cortex, but this has not ...

Tactile Avatar: Tactile Sensing System Mimicking Human Tactile Cognition
Advanced Science, 2021 As a surrogate for human tactile cognition, an artificial tactile perception and cognition system are proposed to produce smooth/soft and rough tactile sensations by its user's tactile feeling; and named this system as “tactile avatar”.

The influence of tactile information on the human evaluation of tactile properties
Fashion and Textiles, 2021 Virtual technologies such as haptic devices and virtual try-ons have been developed to bring more certainty to the non-touch shopping experience; however, they are still no substitute for the in-person experience.

High-Speed Tactile Sensing for Array-Type Tactile Sensor and Object Manipulation Based on Tactile Information [PDF]
Journal of Robotics, 2011 We have developed a universal robot hand with tactile and other sensors. An array-type tactile sensor is crucial for dexterous manipulation of objects using a robotic hand, since this sensor can measure the pressure distribution on finger pads.

Slip Detection with Combined Tactile and Visual Information [PDF]
2018 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2018 Slip detection plays a vital role in robotic manipulation and it has long been a challenging problem in the robotic community. In this paper, we propose a new method based on deep neural network (DNN) to detect slip. The training data is acquired by a GelSight tactile sensor and a camera mounted on a gripper when we use a robot arm to grasp and lift 94
