Human perception of shape from touch [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2011 Abstract In this paper, I focus on the role of active touch in three aspects of shape perception and discrimination studies. First an overview is given of curvature discrimination experiments. The most prominent result is that first-order stimulus information (that is, the difference in attitude or slope over the stimulus) is the ...

Turning Touch into Perception [PDF]
Neuron, 2020 Many brain areas modulate their activity during vibrotactile tasks. The activity from these areas may code the stimulus parameters, stimulus perception, or perceptual reports. Here, we discuss findings obtained in behaving monkeys aimed to understand these processes. In brief, neurons from the somatosensory thalamus and primary somatosensory cortex (S1)

Touch: Fluctuating Waves of Perception [PDF]
Current Biology, 2020 Does sensory input flow into the brain as a stream, or does it come in waves? New research shows that tactile information in the cortex rises and falls in phase with the forward and back motion of whiskers during surface exploration.

Selective perception by dynamic touch [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 1996 Perceiving the length of a rod by dynamic touch is tied to the inertia tensor Iij, a quantification of its resistance to rotational acceleration. Perception of the portion extending in front of the grasp has previously been ascribed to decomposing one component of Iij by attention.
