Is Fat Perception a Thermal Effect?
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2007It has been generally assumed that fat is detected by its flavour and by its lubrication of the oral mucosa. A recent study reported a correlation of –.99 between perceived temperature of a product and its fat content. This was significantly higher than correlations of sensory scores for fat flavour, mouthfeel, and afterfeel.

Thermal cues and the perception of force
Experimental Brain Research, 2009Two experiments were conducted to examine the effect of temperature on force perception. The objective of the first experiment was to quantify the change in skin temperature of the finger as a function of contact force, in order to characterize how much temperature changes under normal contact conditions.

Dynamics and Perception in the Thermal Grill Illusion
IEEE Transactions on Haptics, 2019A basic challenge in perception research is to understand how sensory inputs from physical environments and the body are integrated in order to facilitate perceptual inferences. Thermal perception, which arises through heat transfer between extrinsic sources and body tissues, is an integral part of natural haptic experiences, and thermal feedback ...

Quantitative Thermal Perception Testing in Adults
Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 1999In 225 adults aged 18 to 80 years, normative warm and cold perception thresholds were assessed at the volar distal forearm, thenar eminence, lower medial calf, and lateral dorsal foot using the method of limits and a Thermotest (Somedic, Stockholm, Sweden).

The Effect of Propofol on Thermal Pain Perception
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2005We studied the effect of propofol, a widely used sedative-hypnotic drug, on pain perception. Eighteen subjects received propofol in two sedative concentrations that were balanced and randomized in order. Painful (45 degrees C, 47 degrees C, and 49 degrees C) stimulation temperatures were presented in random order, and nonpainful 31 degrees C stimuli ...

The effect of clothing on thermal feedback perception
Proceedings of the 13th international conference on multimodal interfaces, 2011Thermal feedback is a new area of research in HCI. To date, studies investigating thermal feedback for interaction have focused on virtual reality, abstract uses of thermal output or on use in highly controlled lab settings. This paper is one of the first to look at how environmental factors, in our case clothing, might affect user perception of ...

The perception of thermal comfort
International Journal of Biometeorology, 196526 subjects were exposed either to constant temperature in a water bath or to different air temperatures. A differentiation was made between the comfort temperature and the conscious cutaneous thermal sensation.When thermal sensation of the hand was tested for different internal temperatures it was found that the same superficial (skin) temperature ...

Positive thermal perception can affect users' climate-controlling behavior, indirectly reducing a building's operational carbon emissions. Studies show that some visual elements, such as window sizes and light colors, can influence thermal perception.

Impaired thermal perception in cluster headache
Journal of Neurology, 2006Cluster headache is characterized by attacks of severe periorbital pain. Repetitive burst activity in afferent fibers may induce plastic alterations in somatosensory synaptic processing as a prerequisite for recurring and chronic pain. This psychophysical study addressed hypothesized dysfunctions in craniofacial somatosensory processing in cluster ...

Directional thermal perception for wearable device
Proceedings of the ACM SIGGRAPH Symposium on Applied Perception, 2015Recently, there has been an increasing research interest on thermal feedback. This includes utilizing thermal systems as simple messaging tools, such as: a system that uses temperature to present the importance of messages [Wilson G. 2012] and help users navigate the road by presenting speed or distance with thermal stimuli on the users arm [David and ...
