The Effect of Vibrotactile Feedback on Healthy People and People with Vestibular Disorders during Dual-task Conditions [PDF]

, 2013
Vibrotactile feedback (VTF) has been shown to improve balance performance in healthy people and people with vestibular disorders in a single-task experimental condition. However, typical balance activities occur in a multi-task environment.

Vibrotactile and vibroacoustic interventions into health and well-being

, 2018
We designed a vibrotactile vest with physiological monitoring that interacts with a vibroacoustic urban environment, The Humming Wall. We structured vibrotactile patterns and built a vibrotactile language to convey information and to interact towards and

Biomimetic 3D Tactile Sensor System With Neuromorphic Encoding for Fascicle‐Level Feedback

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A 3D biomimetic tactile sensor system converts skin‐like mechanical interactions into neural stimulation‐ready spike patterns. Embedded slow‐ and fast‐adapting sensors distinguish sustained pressure from transient touch, while neuromorphic encoding preserves their temporal signatures.

A Socially Assistive Robot for Outpatient Eating Disorder Waiting‐List Support: A Mixed‐Methods Feasibility Randomised Controlled Trial

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This feasibility randomised controlled trial (RCT) evaluated Purrble, a socially assistive robot for emotion regulation, as a low‐intensity adjunct during waitlist periods in adult eating disorder services. Method Adults waiting for outpatient eating disorder treatment were randomised to four weeks of Purrble use or waitlist‐as‐usual.

Perceptual Evaluation of the Quantization Level of a Vibrotactile Signal

, 2022
International audienceThe quantization of vibrotactile signals is generally performed in the same way as for audio signals. However, the specificities of the sense of touch may allow other choices for the digitization of vibrotactile signals, in ...

Designing Vibrotactile Scales Based on Human Perception for Encoding Abstract Data

IEEE Access
This study presents a perceptually grounded method for designing vibrotactile scales. These scales consist of structured sets of calibrated vibrotactile patterns to facilitate reliable differentiation between the values and help users perceive and ...

Artificial structures for human‐machine interfaces with closed‐loop interaction

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Artificial structures bridge sensing and feedback in closed‐loop human‐machine interfaces by providing geometry‐enabled mechanical and functional programmability. This review maps the role of artificial structures in diverse sensing modalities and feedback strategies, and illustrates their integration into closed‐loop interaction systems, highlighting ...

An investigation into the use of tactons to present progress information [PDF]

, 2005
This paper presents an initial investigation into the use of Tactons, or tactile icons, to present progress information in desktop human-computer interfaces. Progress bars are very common in a wide range of interfaces but have problems. For example, they
