Feeling Small: Exploring the Tactile Perception Limits
The human finger is exquisitely sensitive in perceiving different materials, but the question remains as to what length scales are capable of being distinguished in active touch. We combine material science with psychophysics to manufacture and haptically explore a series of topographically patterned surfaces of controlled wavelength, but identical chemistry. Strain-induced surface wrinkling an...
متن کاملThe Application of Tactile Experience in Urban Perception
Urban perception is the result of mutual transaction between human and environment and the process of perception is developed through the three continuous steps of “sensation”, “perception” and “cognition”. In the first step (sensorial perception), the environmental signals are received via sensorial sensors and each different sense based on its own essence, performance and ability has its own ...
متن کاملFocused Ultrasound for Tactile Feeling Display
We studied on the feasibility of focused ultrasound for tactile feeling display. Our experiments showed that focused ultrasound at 1 MHz and 5 MHz effected our somatic sensation both by its radiation pressure and by direct stimulation to the nerve structures. The radiation pressure force generated by our apparatus was 0.23 gf/cm per 1-watt power consumption and evoked tactile feeling stably, wh...
متن کاملFeeling Music: Integration of Auditory and Tactile Inputs in Musical Meter Perception
Musicians often say that they not only hear but also "feel" music. To explore the contribution of tactile information to "feeling" music, we investigated the degree that auditory and tactile inputs are integrated in humans performing a musical meter-recognition task. Subjects discriminated between two types of sequences, "duple" (march-like rhythms) and "triple" (waltz-like rhythms), presented ...
متن کاملExploring the Subjective Feeling of Fluency.
According to the processing fluency theory, higher ease of processing a stimulus leads to higher feelings of fluency and more positive evaluations. However, it is unclear whether feelings of fluency are positive or an unspecific activation and whether feelings of fluency are directly attributed to the stimulus even without much positive feelings. In two experiments, we tested how variations in ...
