Tactile-Object Recognition From Appearance Information

IEEE Transactions on Robotics, 2011
This paper explores the connection between sensor-based perception and exploration in the context of haptic object identification. The proposed approach combines 1) object recognition from tactile appearance with 2) purposeful haptic exploration of unknown objects to extract appearance information.

Acoustic-tactile rendering of visual information

SPIE Proceedings, 2012
In previous work, we have proposed a dynamic, interactive system for conveying visual information via hearing and touch. The system is implemented with a touch screen that allows the user to interrogate a two-dimensional (2-D) object layout by active finger scanning while listening to spatialized auditory feedback.

Tactile Treasure Map: Integrating Allocentric and Egocentric Information for Tactile Guidance

2017
With interactive maps a person can manage to find the way from one point to another, using an allocentric perspective (e.g. Google Maps), but also looking at a location as from the inside of the map with an egocentric perspective (e.g. Google Street View). Such experience cannot be performed with tactile maps, mostly explored from a top-view.

Glove-Through Tactile Information Transmission System

Proceedings of the 10th Augmented Human International Conference 2019, 2019
By covering the skin with clothes such as gloves, humans have managed to survive in severe environments and undertake dangerous work. However, when we wear covering materials, tactile information is lost; this may decrease working efficiency and degrade the performance of object perception at the moment of contact.

Representations of microgeometric tactile information during object recognition

Cognitive Processing, 2018
Object recognition through tactile perception involves two elements: the shape of the object (macrogeometric properties) and the material of the object (microgeometric properties). Here we sought to determine the characteristics of microgeometric tactile representations regarding object recognition through tactile perception. Participants were directed

Integration of Tactile Information and Visual Information Using A Glass Substrate Surface Acoustic Wave Tactile Display

2006 SICE-ICASE International Joint Conference, 2006
This paper describes a new method to excite and propagate surface acoustic wave on a non-piezoelectric material surface. The method contains a combination of a LiNbO3 piece and a glass substrate. Successful work of an active type SAW tactile display using the glass transducer is reported.

Optimizing the Tactile Display of Physiological Information: Vibro-Tactile vs. Electro-Tactile Stimulation, and Forearm or Wrist Location

2007 29th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2007
Anesthesiologists use physiological data monitoring systems with visual and auditory displays of information to monitor patients in the operating room (OR). The efficacy of visual-audio systems may impose an increase in patient risk when the demand for constant switching of attention between the patient and the visual monitoring system is high. This is

Vibro-Tactile Information Presentation in Automobiles

2001
This paper describes the potential of using vibro-tactile displays for automobile drivers. Technological developments in the field of driver support systems and tactile displays, combined with the ever increasing need to enlarge the capacity of the driver's information channel, farm the reason to review the possibilities of in-car tactile displays and ...
