Haptic Perception of Macro Texture
نویسندگان
چکیده
The studies of texture perception focused mainly on displaying the textures with interior space gap in the millimeter level and below. We could call this kind of texture “fine texture”. In contrast, the “macro texture” has space gap in centimeters and above, and it is considered as the special texture with tiny texture pattern covered on curved surface. Macro texture contains richer surface information, including both roughness and curvature. This paper introduces a haptic device which could represent sinusoidal macro texture through active and dynamic touch with bare finger.

Active Perception-Based Haptic Texture Sensor
Surface texture is one of the important cues for human beings to identify objects. Haptic texture measurement is necessary for object recognition by touch. This paper presents a novel design of a haptic texture sensor by imitating human active texture perception. A thin polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film is used as the sensitive element to fabricate a high-accuracy, high-speed-response haptic ...
متن کاملPerceptual dependence for shape and texture during haptic processing.
Perceptual dependence--the existence of perceptual interactions between the component dimensions of the same stimulus--was investigated for shape and texture during haptic processing. The haptic system combines tactual and kinesthetic information. Previous research has demonstrated that haptic exploration influences the extent to which object properties are integrated. Conditions designed to pr...
متن کاملThe perception of texture , object size and angularity by touch in virtual environments with two haptic devices .
The incorporation of the sense of touch (haptic sense) into virtual reality (VR) has considerable potential to enhance the realism of virtual environments and make VR accessible to blind people. This paper summarises a series of investigations into the haptic perception of texture and object size/angularity in VR, with two haptic devices. Guidelines for the creation of haptic environments for b...
متن کاملAliveness: perceived instability from a passive haptic texture rendering system
This paper reports new findings of our ongoing research on perceived instability that human users frequently experience from interacting with virtual textures rendered with a force-feedback haptic interface. Our work is aimed at a better understanding of a new type of perceived instability called “aliveness”, which was discovered during our previous psychophysical experiments performed using a ...
متن کاملTexture and haptic cues in slant discrimination
In vision science the currently most popular models for depth perception are weak fusion models in which the final depth estimate results from a weighted average of the independent depth estimates obtained from each cue [2]. In these models a more reliable cue has a larger weight in the combined estimate. Furthermore, recent studies report that human observes combine depth cues as to obtain the...
