Towards Transparency in Pervasive Information Display: Possibilities for Attentionally-Managed Tactile Signals

نویسنده

  • Karon E. MacLean
چکیده

When combined with realtime knowledge of user context and goals, haptic feedback can contribute to the need for transparent, appropriately salient information display in information-rich pervasive environments. Designed with respect for human perceptual and attentional limits, it can serve as a “background” communication channel by freeing visual resources, and being naturally suitable for low-attention processing. In this paper, we describe opportunities, tools and research results in support of such functionality – including user-centred stimulus design mechanisms minimizing attentional load while optimizing cognitive resources, and emerging indications of approach scalability and best learning practices.

Neuronal basis of tactile sense in the rat whisker system

Using their whiskers, rats have tactile capacities rivaling those of the human with our fingertips. We have carried out experiments to explore how neurons encode touch signals to build up a central representation. Touch signals begin with the receptors in the follicle of each whisker and can be traced to a columnar module in somatosensory cortex that is connected with the same whisker: the well...

Determining the Proper compression Algorithm for Biomedical Signals and Design of an Optimum Graphic System to Display Them (TECHNICAL NOTES)

In this paper the need for employing a data reduction algorithm in using digital graphic systems to display biomedical signals is firstly addressed and then, some such algorithms are compared from different points of view (such as complexity, real time feasibility, etc.). Subsequently, it is concluded that Turning Point algorithm can be a suitable one for real time implementation on a microproc...

ActiveBelt: Belt-Type Wearable Tactile Display for Directional Navigation

In this paper we propose a novel wearable interface called “ActiveBelt” that enables users to obtain multiple directional information with the tactile sense. Since the information provided by the tactile sense is relatively unobtrusive, it is suited for daily use in mobile environments. However, many existing systems don’t transmit complex information via the tactile sense. Most of them send on...
