Finger pad friction and its role in grip and touch.
Many aspects of both grip function and tactile perception depend on complex frictional interactions occurring in the contact zone of the finger pad, which is the subject of the current review. While it is well established that friction plays a crucial role in grip function, its exact contribution for discriminatory touch involving the sliding of a finger pad is more elusive. For texture discrim...

متن کاملFinger tip and nail bed injuries.
Damage to any of the anatomic structures of the finger tip can result in a change in use of the hand, even making some tasks impossible. Prevention is naturally most important; however, when an injury occurs, anatomic restoration should be the goal. Treatment should be the most direct and simple to reach the optimal structural and functional result. Caveats of treatment are: (1) save nails; (2)...
متن کاملDisplay of Friction in Virtual Environments Based on Human Finger Pad Characteristics
A friction display system is proposed for virtual environments. Since a user’s fingertip is often placed inside a ring or thimble of a haptic interface , the finger pad cannot move relative to the finger structure as freely as it would move in the real world. Thus, it is necessary to imitate the real world movement of the human finger pad in the virtual environment. This paper quantifies the fr...
متن کاملExaminer's finger-mounted fetal tissue oximetry.
The best way to assess fetal condition is to observe the oxygen status of the fetus (as well as to assess the condition of infants, children, and adults). Previously, several fetal oximeters have been developed; however, no instrument has been utilized in clinical practice because of the low-capturing rate of the fetal oxygen saturation. To overcome the problem, we developed a doctor's finger-m...
