A generic approach for augmenting tactile diagrams with spatial non-speech sounds [PDF]
Blind or visually impaired users typically access diagrams in the tactile medium. This paper describes TouchMelody, a system designed for augmenting such existing diagrams with 3D spatial auditory information to increase their usefulness, information ...

Feeling what you hear: tactile feedback for navigation of audio graphs [PDF]
Access to digitally stored numerical data is currently very limited for sight impaired people. Graphs and visualizations are often used to analyze relationships between numerical data, but the current methods of accessing them are highly visually ...

Neural correlates of tactile hardness intensity perception during active grasping [PDF]
While tactile sensation plays an essential role in interactions with the surroundings, relatively little is known about the neural processes involved in the perception of tactile information. In particular, it remains unclear how different intensities of

Displaying laterally moving tactile information [PDF]
A movable dynamic tactile display has been developed presenting information to one or several fingertips resting on the display. As a main goal, the virtual line or plane of information to be displayed should be read using the same perceptual and cognitive resources as with real objects like paper braille or tactile graphics.

Information obtained from multiple sensory modalities, such as vision and touch, is integrated to yield a holistic percept. As a haptic approach usually involves cross-modal sensory experiences, it is necessary to develop an apparatus that can ...

Temporal coherency of mechanical stimuli modulates tactile form perception
The human hand can detect both form and texture information of a contact surface. The detection of skin displacement (sustained stimulus) and changes in skin displacement (transient stimulus) are thought to be mediated in different tactile channels ...

Advances in haptic technologies enable rich, multi-channel haptic rendering of interactions with virtual objects during virtual reality training. However, it remains an open question whether multi-channel haptic rendering (kinesthetic and tactile ...

Embodied tactile perception and learning
Various living creatures exhibit embodiment intelligence, which is reflected by a collaborative interaction of the brain, body, and environment. The actual behavior of embodiment intelligence is generated by a continuous and dynamic interaction between a

Categorical perception of tactile distance [PDF]
The tactile surface forms a continuous sheet covering the body. And yet, the perceived distance between two touches varies across stimulation sites. Perceived tactile distance is larger when stimuli cross over the wrist, compared to when both fall on ...
