Enhancing Localization Performance with Extended Funneling Vibrotactile Feedback

open access: yesMultimodal Technologies and Interaction, 2023
This study explores the conventional ‘funneling’ method by introducing two extra locations beyond the virtual reality (VR) controller boundaries, terming it the extended funneling technique.

Vibrotactile information improves proprioceptive reaching target localization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
When pointing to parts of our own body (e.g., the opposite index finger), the position of the target is derived from proprioceptive signals. Consistent with the principles of multisensory integration, it has been found that participants better matched ...

Effects of Stimulus Frequency and Location on Vibrotactile Discrimination Performance Using Voice Coil Actuators on the Forearm

open access: yesActuators, 2023
What are the effects of frequency variation of vibrotactile stimuli on localization acuity? The precise localization of vibrotactile stimuli is crucial for applications that are aimed at conveying vibrotactile information.

Somatosensory cross-modal activation and changes in cortical somatosensory evoked potential responses in single-sided deafness: an EEG study [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
BackgroundThe neural mechanisms underlying somatosensory processing in individuals with acquired single-sided deafness (SSD) and potential central neuronal cross-modal reorganization remain largely unexplored. This study investigates the impact of SSD on

Humans Use a Temporally Local Code for Vibrotactile Perception [PDF]

open access: yeseneuro, 2021
AbstractSensory environments are commonly characterized by specific physical features, which sensory systems might exploit using dedicated processing mechanisms. In the tactile sense, one such characteristic feature is frictional movement, which gives rise to short-lasting (<10 ms), information-carrying integument vibrations.

Modeling and Experimental Evaluation of Haptic Localization Using Electrostatic Vibration Actuators

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
Touch screen devices have become ubiquitous in modern day-to-day lives. While smaller touchscreen devices provide enough user engagement with meaningful haptic feedback, large touch devices still lack meaningful haptic stimulation.

Discrimination Accuracy of Sequential Versus Simultaneous Vibrotactile Stimulation on the Forearm

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
We examined discrimination accuracy of vibrotactile patterns on the upper forearm using a 2 × 3 array of voice coil actuators to generate 100 Hz vibrotactile stimulation.
