Exploring the impulsion and vibration effects of tactile patterns

چکیده
This paper explores the impulsion and vibration properties of different tactile patterns. These properties describe the unique states of the pins for example raised or lowered. The tactile feedback is provided by Braille pins on a finger and is in the form of different patterns chosen for the experiments. We tested these features on the Braille display of dimension 4x2 (8 pins). The experiments were conducted to determine the selection time and error rate of impulsion and vibration characteristics. We report preliminary results of informal tests. We also discuss the related issues and propose possible future directions.

متن کاملEffects of Vestibular and Tactile Stimulation on Behavioral Disorders due to Sensory Processing Deficiency in 3-13 Years Old Iranian Autistic Children
Objectives: Among the most important problems of autistic children are the behavioral disorders due to sensory processing deficiency, which are typically reflected in behaviors such as impulsivity, attention and concentration disorders, undesirable emotional reactions, sensory seeking in the form of stereotype behaviors, self-injury and self-stimulating. The present study aimed at exploring the...
متن کاملVibrotactile Exploration of Indoor Objects
This paper describes our study about how to make use of a tactile belt with 8 vibrators to present rich spatial information for blind and visually impaired people while exploring indoor environments. In order to conduct a Wizard-of-Oz evaluation with 12 sighted subjects, a tablet based application has been developed for setting indoor scenarios and exploration interaction. Two sets of tactile p...
متن کاملAnalysis of different vibration patterns to guide blind people
The literature indicates the best vibration positions and frequencies on the human body where tactile information is transmitted. However, there is a lack of knowledge about how to combine tactile stimuli for navigation. The aim of this study is to compare different vibration patterns outputted to blind people and to determine the most intuitive vibration patterns to indicate direction for navi...
متن کاملNeuronal 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...
