Vibrotactile Stimulation Based on the Fundamental Frequency Can Improve Melodic Contour Identification of Normal-Hearing Listeners With a 4-Channel Cochlear Implant Simulation

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Cochlear implant (CI) users’ poor speech recognition in noise and music perception may be both due to their limited access to pitch cues such as the fundamental frequency (F0). Recent studies showed that similar to residual low-frequency acoustic hearing,

Investigational treatment of rheumatoid arthritis with a vibrotactile device applied to the external ear

Bioelectronic Medicine, 2019
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic and debilitating inflammatory disease characterized by extensive joint tissue inflammation. Implantable bioelectronic devices targeting the inflammatory reflex reduce TNF production and inflammation in ...

Directional Decoding From EEG in a Center-Out Motor Imagery Task With Visual and Vibrotactile Guidance

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Motor imagery is a popular technique employed as a motor rehabilitation tool, or to control assistive devices to substitute lost motor function. In both said areas of application, artificial somatosensory input helps to mirror the sensorimotor loop by ...

Relation between vibrotactile perception thresholds and reductions in finger blood flow induced by vibration of the hand at frequencies in the range 8–250 Hz [PDF]

, 2014
Purpose: this study investigated how the vasoconstriction induced by vibration depends on the frequency of vibration when the vibration magnitude is defined by individual thresholds for perceiving vibration [i.e.

Modeling vibrotactile detection by logistic regression [PDF]

, 2012
In this study we introduce logistic regression as a method for modeling, in this case the user's detection rate, to more easily show cross-effecting factors, necessary in order to design an adaptive system.

Hybrid Neural and Residual Coding for Multi-Channel Vibrotactile Signals

IEEE Access
Multi-channel haptic feedback, e.g., vibrotactile, is essential for realizing truly immersive extended-reality (XR) experiences. Such XR applications increasingly demand offline-capable solutions, where multi-channel haptic feedback is measured offline ...

Information Transfer to a Hand-Held Container Using Virtual Vibrotactile Motion

IEEE Access
The present study proposes a novel method to provide information via a hand-held container, such as a cup, to a user’s hand, using virtual vibrotactile motion. Although container information can be conveyed visually or auditorily, these modalities
