Cortical spectral dynamics of vibrotactile frequency processing [PDF]

Scientific Reports
While scientific research has extensively explored how the brain integrates touch and pain signals, the cerebral processing of specific vibrotactile frequencies remains poorly understood.

Auditory and vibrotactile interactions in perception of timbre acoustic features [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Recently, there has been increasing interest in developing auditory-to-vibrotactile sensory devices. However, the potential of these technologies is constrained by our limited understanding of which features of complex sounds can be perceived through ...

Integration of vibrotactile frequency information beyond the mechanoreceptor channel and somatotopy. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2017
AbstractA wide variety of tactile sensations arise from the activation of several types of mechanoreceptor-afferent channels scattered all over the body, and their projections create a somatotopic map in the somatosensory cortex. Recent findings challenge the traditional view that tactile signals from different mechanoreceptor-channels/locations are ...

Vibrotactile Stimulus Frequency Optimization for the Haptic BCI Prototype [PDF]

The 6th International Conference on Soft Computing and Intelligent Systems, and The 13th International Symposium on Advanced Intelligence Systems, 2012
The paper presents results from a psychophysical study conducted to optimize vibrotactile stimuli delivered to subject finger tips in order to evoke the somatosensory responses to be utilized next in a haptic brain computer interface (hBCI) paradigm.

Auditory and tactile frequency mapping for visual distance perception: A step forward in sensory substitution and augmentation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Vision is crucial for daily tasks and interacting with the environment, but visual impairment can hinder these activities. Many sensory substitution products and studies prioritize providing abundant and accurate information, yet often overlook the ...

Vibrotactile auricular vagus nerve stimulation alters limbic system connectivity in humans: A pilot study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Vibration offers a potential alternative modality for transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS). However, mechanisms of action are not well-defined.

Comparing placement and polarity configurations of a two-magnet fingertip vibrotactile device [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Vibrotactile feedback enriches the use of wearable technologies for entertainment, navigation, and healthcare. The actuators of these portable systems, particularly fingertip devices, need to be compact, comfortable, and easy to integrate.

Quantifying spatial acuity of frequency resolved midair ultrasound vibrotactile stimuli

Scientific Reports, 2023
Spatial acuity is a fundamental property of any sensory system. In the case of the somatosensory system, the two-point discrimination (2PD) test has long been used to investigate tactile spatial resolution.
