A Thermal Tactile Sensation Display with Controllable Thermal Conductivity
Micromachines, 2019 We demonstrate a thermal tactile sensation display that can present various thermal sensations, namely cold/cool/warm/hot feelings, by varying the effective thermal conductivity of the display. Thermal sensation is one of the major tactile sensations and

Supraspinal characterization of the thermal grill illusion with fMRI. [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundSimultaneous presentation of non-noxious warm (40°C) and cold (20°C) stimuli in an interlacing fashion results in a transient hot burning noxious sensation (matched at 46°C) known as the thermal grill (TG) illusion.
