Visual enhancement of touch and the bodily self [PDF]

, 2008
We experience our own body through both touch and vision. We further see that others’ bodies are similar to our own body, but we have no direct experience of touch on others’ bodies.

Implicit processing of tactile information: Evidence from the tactile change detection paradigm

Consciousness and Cognition, 2011
People can maintain accurate representations of visual changes without necessarily being aware of them. Here, we investigate whether a similar phenomenon (implicit change detection) also exists in touch. In Experiments 1 and 2, participants detected the presence of a change between two consecutively-presented tactile displays.

Photoelasticity based dynamic tactile sensor [PDF]

, 2005
The paper presents design, construction and testing of a photoelasticity based dynamic sensor which is capable of detecting slip as well as providing normal force information.

Influence of spaces between raised dot patterns and raised boundary lines on perceptibility of tactile guide map lines

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2016
Tactile guide maps are well-known information support tools for visually impaired people. In a tactile guide map, area information is expressed by use of raised dot patterns and raised boundary lines. Tactile guide map designers must place spaces between

Sensorimotor memories influence movement kinematics but not associated tactile processing

Scientific Reports, 2023
When interacting with objects, we often rely on visual information. However, vision is not always the most reliable sense for determining relevant object properties. For example, when the mass distribution of an object cannot be inferred visually, humans

Non-visual information display using tactons [PDF]

, 2004
This paper describes a novel form of display using tactile output. Tactons, or tactile icons, are structured tactile messages that can be used to communicate message to users non visually. A range of different parameters can be used to construct Tactons,

Continuous Representation of Tactile Information by an Unsupervised Liquid State Machine

IEEE Access
Tactile information is indispensable for real-world systems such as robots used for manipulating physical objects. Tactile sensation is acquired as a time-series information by mechano-transduction systems, and the system responsible for processing the ...

Why Early Tactile Speech Aids May Have Failed: No Perceptual Integration of Tactile and Auditory Signals

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
Tactile speech aids, though extensively studied in the 1980’s and 1990’s, never became a commercial success. A hypothesis to explain this failure might be that it is difficult to obtain true perceptual integration of a tactile signal with information ...

A dynamic tactile sensor on photoelastic effect [PDF]

, 2006
Certain photoelastic materials exhibit birefringent characteristics at a very low level of strain. This property of material may be suitable for dynamic or wave propagation studies, which can be exploited for designing tactile sensors.

Rapid enhancement of touch from non-informative vision of the hand [PDF]

, 2012
Processing in one sensory modality may modulate processing in another. Here we investigate how simply viewing the hand can influence the sense of touch. Previous studies showed that non-informative vision of the hand enhances tactile acuity, relative to ...
