چکیده

In this paper, we describe a method for presenting underwater tactile electrical stimulation for in-bath entertainment. We investigated the localization abilities of participants and the polarity effect of the stimulation, and found that underwater electro-tactile anodic stimulation produced a stronger sensation than did cathodic stimulation. Furthermore, we found that the participants were able to successfully identify the direction of the tactile stimulation and the direction of rotation during anodic stimulation.
