Electrotactile frequency perception over multiple stimulation sites does not use a winner‐takes‐all mechanism

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Peripheral tactile afferents exhibit a wide range of response patterns to a pure frequency vibratory stimulus. Some afferents, including those remote from the stimulus site, fire at lower rates as they do not respond to every vibration cycle of the stimulus.

BOLD Adaptation in Vibrotactile Stimulation: Neuronal Networks Involved in Frequency Discrimination [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 2007
The present functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study investigated human brain regions subserving the discrimination of vibrotactile frequency. An event-related adaptation paradigm was used in which blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) responses are lower to same compared with different pairs of stimuli (BOLD adaptation).

Somatosensory cortical representations of the assimilation effect for vibrotactile stimulation

open access: yesNeuroImage
Specific sensory pathways are well-described, but relatively less is known about how these different sensory information streams are integrated to create a coherent representation of the external environment.

Perceptual Threshold Level for the Tactile Stimulation and Response Features of ERD/ERS-Based Specific Indices Upon Changes in High-Frequency Vibrations

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
This study was conducted to identify characteristics of the perceptual threshold level and electroencephalogram (EEG) responses to vibrotactile stimulations at various high frequencies, and to examine the possibility of distinguishing vibrotactile ...

Quantifying spatial acuity of frequency resolved midair ultrasound vibrotactile stimuli

open access: yesScientific 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.

Origami‐Mediated Low‐Voltage Electret Soft Robotic Actuators for Human‐Machine Haptic Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 45, 13 August 2026.
This work introduces an origami‐mediated soft electret actuator that combines compliant mechanical design and enhanced charge retention for low‐voltage vibrotactile feedback. The device delivers reliable tactile cues, demonstrates durable performance under continuous actuation, and enables intuitive interaction in applications such as tactile ...

Clinical Outcomes of Bone‐Anchored Versus Socket‐Suspended Prostheses in Individuals With Transfemoral Amputation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Two‐Arm Comparative Studies

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 8, Page 1545-1562, August 2026.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis compared bone‐anchored prostheses (BAP) and socket‐suspended prostheses (SSP) in individuals with transfemoral amputation (TFA) using only two‐arm comparative studies. Across 12 studies (BAP n = 200; SSP n = 244), no significant differences were found in mobility, quality of life, or gait.

Gamma and Beta Oscillations in Human MEG Encode the Contents of Vibrotactile Working Memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Ample evidence suggests that oscillations in the beta band represent quantitative information about somatosensory features during stimulus retention. Visual and auditory working memory (WM) research, on the other hand, has indicated a predominant role of

Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 13, 8 July 2026.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

Sensory Tricks in Dystonia: A Systematic Review and Nested Quantitative Synthesis

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Sensory tricks transiently suppress dystonic movements in up to 90% of patients when systematically elicited, yet remain underyrecognized clinically. Their neurophysiological basis and deviceybased analogues offer a promising, underutilized therapeutic avenue warranting standardized assessment and controlled trials.
