Haptics in Neuroscience

چکیده
THE neuroscience of haptics has made many breakthroughs over the last six or so decades and these scientific advances are now being leveraged to develop new therapies for patients suffering from sensorimotor disorders and new technologies to improve our everyday lives. This special section features a broad range of studies, some of which advance our basic understanding of haptics, others develop devices to further study haptics neuroscience, and still others invoke what is known about the neural basis of haptics to develop new therapeutic or augmentative devices.

The word haptics, believed to be derived from the Greek word haptesthai, means related to the sense of touch. In the psychology and neuroscience literature, haptics is the study of human touch sensing, specifically via kinesthetic (force/position) and cutaneous (tactile) receptors, associated with perception and manipulation. In the robotics and virtual reality literature, haptics is broadly de...
متن کاملLaboratory for Human and Machine Haptics : The Touch Lab
The work in the Touch Lab (formal name: Laboratory for Human and Machine Haptics) is guided by a broad vision of haptics which includes all aspects of information acquisition and object manipulation through touch by humans, machines, or a combination of the two; and the environments can be real or virtual. We conduct research in multiple disciplines such as skin biomechanics, tactile neuroscien...

متن کاملVisual-haptic adaptation is determined by relative reliability.
Accurate calibration of sensory estimators is critical for maintaining accurate estimates of the environment. Classically, it was assumed that sensory calibration occurs by one sense changing to become consistent with vision; this is visual dominance. Recently, it has been proposed that changes in estimators occur according to their relative reliabilities; this is the reliability-based model. W...
متن کاملVirtual Reality System with Haptics Integration
Virtual Reality (VR) has shown its great potential from the video game industry to scientific research in recent years thanks to the advancement of VR enhancement devices like Oculus Rift and the Leap Motion. To demonstrate the usage of VR in research, this project describes a system that enables human-computer interaction through haptic feedback. In experiment, subjects can receive feedback of...
