Auditory perception can benefit from stimuli in non-auditory sensory modalities, as for example in lip-reading. Compared with such visual influences, tactile influences are still poorly understood. It has been shown that single tactile pulses can enhance

Visual enhancement of touch and the bodily self [PDF]
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.

Visuo-tactile heading perception
We investigated heading perception from visual-only (optic flow), tactile-only (tactile flow), or bimodal self-motion stimuli in different conditions varying in head and eye position. Overall, heading perception was body or world centered and non-Bayes optimal and revealed a centripetal bias.

Perception and action are essential in our day-to-day interactions with the environment. Despite the dual-stream theory of action and perception, it is now accepted that action and perception processes interact with each other.

Spatial patterns in tactile perception: Is there a tactile field?
Previous studies of tactile spatial perception focussed either on a single point of stimulation, on local patterns within a single skin region such as the fingertip, on tactile motion, or on active touch. It remains unclear whether we should speak of a tactile field, analogous to the visual field, and supporting spatial relations between stimulus ...

Aging and the perception of tactile speed
AbstractEighteen younger and older adults (mean ages were 20.4 and 72.8 years, respectively) participated in a tactile speed matching task. On any given trial, the participants felt the surfaces of rotating standard and test wheels with their index fingertip and were required to adjust the test wheel until its speed appeared to match that of the ...

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 ...

We do not just touch, we feel (Bajcsy, Proceedings of the IEEE 76(8): 966–1005, 1988). Our tactile sense is not merely a passive receiver of information, but actively selects and refines sensations according to our present goals and perceptions (Gibson, Psychological review, 69(6) 1962).

Tactile Perception of Rotational Sliding [PDF]
We present a new tactile display for rendering rotational friction at the fingertips. To inform the design and control of this device, we have conducted an initial set of perceptual experiments to investigate perceptual thresholds for rates of rotational slipping at the fingertips.

To improve touchscreen accessibility, it has been proved efficient to integrate tactile feedback into touchscreen devices. Two typical techniques can be used to offer tactile feedback on smartphones, namely, mechanical vibration (MV) and ultrasonic ...
