Learning cross-modal visual-tactile representation using ensembled generative adversarial networks

open access: yesCognitive Computation and Systems, 2019
In this study, the authors study a deep learning model that can convert vision into tactile information, so that different texture images can be fed back to the tactile signal close to the real tactile sensation after training and learning.

Processing of tactile information by the hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
The ability to detect unusual events occurring in the environment is essential for survival. Several studies have pointed to the hippocampus as a key brain structure in novelty detection, a claim substantiated by its wide access to sensory information through the entorhinal cortex and also distinct aspects of its intrinsic circuitry.

Tactile Perception Technologies and Their Applications in Minimally Invasive Surgery: A Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has been the preferred surgery approach owing to its advantages over conventional open surgery. As a major limitation, the lack of tactile perception impairs the ability of surgeons in tissue distinction and maneuvers ...

Noninformative Vision of Body Movements can Enhance Tactile Discrimination

open access: yesi-Perception, 2022
Vision of the body without task cues enhances tactile discrimination performance. This effect has been investigated only with static visual information, although our body usually moves, and dynamic visual and bodily information provides ownership (SoO ...

Comparison between audio and tactile systems for delivering simple navigational information to visually impaired pedestrians [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Many of the current GPS (Global Positioning Systems) navigation aids use an audio method to deliver navigation information to the user. For the visually impaired person this method can be problematic.

The design and evaluation of a vibrotactile progress bar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present an investigation into the use of Tactons to present progress information. Progress bars are common but must compete for screen space and visual attention with other visual tasks.
