The Right to Touch and Be Touched
Nursing Ethics, 1996Touching is an integral part of human behaviour; from the moment of birth until they die, people need to be touched and to touch others. Touching is an intimate action that implies an invasion of the individual's personal, private space. In ethical terms, the ques tion of touching is closely related to the patient's right to integrity and inviolability.

As described in Chap. 4 the combination of vision, sound, and touch forms the essential trinity of VR interaction. With current consumer VR technology, the realism that we can achieve regarding the first two modalities is already quite convincing. However, realistic touch feedback can only be achieved with advanced haptic input devices [1, 2].

Light touch, a sense of muscle position, and the responses to tissue-damaging levels of pressure all involve mechanosensitive sensory neurons that originate in the dorsal root or trigeminal ganglia. A variety of mechanisms of mechanotransduction are proposed.

The dual nature of touch has long been understood. The sense of touch seems to carry information at the same time about the external object touching our skin, and also about our body itself. However, how these two interact has remained obscure. We present an analytic model of how tactile information interacts with mental body representations in the ...
