Attenuation of self-generated tactile sensations is predictive, not postdictive [PDF]

, 2006
When one finger touches the other, the resulting tactile sensation is perceived as weaker than the same stimulus externally imposed. This attenuation of sensation could result from a predictive process that subtracts the expected sensory consequences of ...

The Phenomenology of Tactile Perception for Design

International Journal of Membrane Science and Technology, 2023
For design, tactile perception is a crucial dimension of the user experience. Design disciplines can find an essential body of knowledge in the tradition of the psychology of perception. This article first introduces the physiological aspects, starting from receptor differences and leading to the tactile representation in the brain. Consistent with the

Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...

A first investigation into the effectiveness of Tactons [PDF]

, 2005
This paper reports two experiments relating to the design of Tactons (or tactile icons). The first experiment investigated perception of vibro-tactile "roughness" (created using amplitude modulated sinusoids), and the results indicated that roughness ...

Tactile shape discrimination for moving stimuli

Scientific Reports
In this study, we explored spatial-temporal dependencies and their impact on the tactile perception of moving objects. Building on previous research linking visual perception and human movement, we examined if an imputed motion mechanism operates within ...

Tribologists on the Path of Tactile Perception [PDF]

Proceedings of the 17th LACCEI International Multi-Conference for Engineering, Education, and Technology: “Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure for Sustainable Cities and Communities”, 2019
Between human senses, tactile perception is nowadays object of several research area, due to the lack of knowledge and to its crucial role on several social and industrial issues. Being the contact between skin and touched surfaces at the origin of the tactile sense, tribologists play a key role in the identification and understanding of the signals at

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.

Variation in the autism candidate gene GABRB3 modulates tactile sensitivity in typically developing children [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Autism spectrum conditions have a strong genetic component. Atypical sensory sensitivities are one of the core but neglected features of autism spectrum conditions. GABRB3 is a well-characterised candidate gene for autism spectrum conditions.
