Perceptual rivalry with vibrotactile stimuli [PDF]
In perceptual rivalry, ambiguous sensory information leads to dynamic changes in the perceptual interpretation of fixed stimuli. This phenomenon occurs when participants receive sensory stimuli that support two or more distinct interpretations; this results in spontaneous alternations between possible perceptual interpretations.

Vibrotactile pedals : provision of haptic feedback to support economical driving [PDF]
The use of haptic feedback is currently an underused modality in the driving environment, especially with respect to vehicle manufacturers. This exploratory study evaluates the effects of a vibrotactile (or haptic) accelerator pedal on car driving ...

Speech-derived haptic stimulation enhances speech recognition in a multi-talker background
Speech understanding, while effortless in quiet conditions, is challenging in noisy environments. Previous studies have revealed that a feasible approach to supplement speech-in-noise (SiN) perception consists in presenting speech-derived signals as ...

Perception of a vibratory test stimulus is substantially influenced by the level of vibrotactile stimulation that precedes it. In a series of experiments reported here, effects of such adaptation on detection and discrimination thresholds were examined.

Multidimensional tactons for non-visual information presentation in mobile devices [PDF]
Tactons are structured vibrotactile messages which can be used for non-visual information presentation when visual displays are limited, unavailable or inappropriate, such as in mobile phones and other mobile devices.

Toward improving control performance of myoelectric arm prosthesis by adding wrist position feedback
Wearing a myoelectric prosthesis is a basic way for limb amputees to restore their lost limb functions in the activities of daily living (ADLs). However, it is estimated that around 40% of amputees refuse the prosthesis.

Tactile crescendos and sforzandos: applying musical techniques to tactile icon design [PDF]
Tactile icons (Tactons) are structured vibrotactile messages which can be used for non visual information display. Information is encoded in Tactons by manipulating vibrotactile parameters. This research investigates the possibilities of applying musical
