The role of visual processing on tactile suppression. [PDF]
It has been suggested that tactile signals are suppressed on a moving limb to free capacities for processing other relevant sensory signals. In line with this notion, we recently showed that tactile suppression is indeed stronger in the presence of reach-

Multisensory attention and tactile information-processing [PDF]
Although a great deal is now known about the peripheral sensory mechanisms involved in tactile information processing [Ann Rev Psychol 1990;50:305], it is only more recently that we have started to gain a clearer understanding of the effects of selective attention on tactile perception [Front Biosci 2000;5:D894]. To date, the majority of this selective

Design and Qualitative Evaluation of Tactile Devices for Stroke Rehabilitation [PDF]
Rehabilitation environments combining virtual reality with everyday motor tasks can promote recovery from neurological illness, such as stroke. Tactile devices, providing physical stimulation to the skin, may improve motor retraining.

Evaluating informative auditory and tactile cues for in-vehicle information systems [PDF]
As in-vehicle information systems are increasingly able to obtain and deliver information, driver distraction becomes a larger concern. In this paper we propose that informative interruption cues (IIC) can be an effective means to support drivers’ attention management.

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

Shifts of attention in the early blind: an ERP study of attentional control processes in the absence of visual spatial information [PDF]
To investigate the role of visual spatial information in the control of spatial attention, event-related brain potentials (ERPs) were recorded during a tactile attention task for a group of totally blind participants who were either congenitally blind or

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

Crossmodal icons for information display [PDF]
This paper describes a novel form of display using crossmodal output. A crossmodal icon is an abstract icon that can be instantiated in one of two equivalent forms (auditory or tactile).

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 ...

This paper surveys the haptic technologies deployed in cars and their uses to enhance drivers' safety during manual driving. These technologies enable to deliver haptic (tactile or kinesthetic) feedback at various areas of the car, such as the steering ...
