Speech-derived haptic stimulation enhances speech recognition in a multi-talker background
Speech understanding, while effortless in quiet conditions, is challenging in noisy environments. Previous studies have revealed that a feasible approach to supplement speech-in-noise (SiN) perception consists in presenting speech-derived signals as ...

A pneumatic vibrotactile stimulation device for fMRI [PDF]
AbstractMapping the functional response of the somatosensory cortex is useful both for characterizing normal brain activity and for determining the functional integrity of damaged cortex compromised by stroke or other neurological insults. A variety of stimulators have been used to produce somatosensory cortex activation in functional brain imaging ...

Emotional Response to Vibrothermal Stimuli
Emotional response to haptic stimuli is a widely researched topic, but the combination of vibrotactile and thermal stimuli requires more attention. The purpose of this study is to investigate emotional response to vibrothermal stimulation by combining ...

Vibrotactile signals can aid recognition of spectrally degraded speech signals [PDF]
The potential utility of providing low-frequency portions of speech signals through vibrotactile stimulation as an aid to speech recognition by cochlear implant recipients was examined. Sixty-five young adults with normal hearing heard four-channel noise-

A Large-Area Broadband Multimodal Dual-Resonant Haptic Device for Bidirectional Telerobotic and Augmented Interactions. [PDF]
We present a large‐area bidirectional human–machine interface integrating electrostatic multimodal tactile sensing with a dual‐resonant haptic actuator. The system enables linear pressure sensing that is decoupled from actuation and stable broadband vibrotactile feedback under dynamic contact conditions, supporting real‐time feedback modulation aligned

Repeated training with augmentative vibrotactile feedback increases object manipulation performance. [PDF]
Most users of prosthetic hands must rely on visual feedback alone, which requires visual attention and cognitive resources. Providing haptic feedback of variables relevant to manipulation, such as contact force, may thus improve the usability of ...
