Perception of simulated local shapes using active and passive touch.
This study reexamined the perceptual equivalence of active and passive touch using a computer-controlled force-feedback device. Nine subjects explored a 6 x 10-cm workspace, with the index finger resting on a mobile flat plate, and experienced simulated Gaussian ridges and troughs (width, 15 mm; amplitude, 0.5 to 4.5 mm). The device simulated shapes by modulating either lateral resistance with ...
متن کاملComparing the Role of Lateral Force During Active and Passive Touch: Lateral Force and its Correlates are Inherently Ambiguous Cues for Shape Perception under Passive Touch Conditions
Lateral forces are important cues for shape perception through active touch [1,2]. They can elicit illusory haptic shapes, or perceptually transform the shape of physical objects [1]. Here, it is shown that lateral force, and correlates such as acceleration and velocity, are inherently ambiguous as shape cues under passive touch conditions. The lateral forces arising when passively touching obj...
متن کاملSupport for the slip hypothesis from whisker-related tactile perception of rats in a noisy environment
Rodents use active whisker movements to explore their environment. The "slip hypothesis" of whisker-related tactile perception entails that short-lived kinematic events (abrupt whisker movements, called "slips", due to bioelastic whisker properties that occur during active touch of textures) carry the decisive texture information. Supporting this hypothesis, previous studies have shown that sli...
متن کاملActive Touch and Robot Perception
Psychologists distinguish between active and passive touch. The latter arises when objects are brought into contact with a passive tactile surface, such as the palm of the band. Active touch describes a dynamic exploration of objects involving receptors located in both the skin (cutaneous) and the joints (kinesthetic). Research in the area of robotic tactile perception has focussed on passive t...
متن کاملعدم درک درد در نوجوان 12 ساله (گزارش موردی)
Background: People vary greatly in their response to painful stimuli, from those with a low pain threshold to those with indifference to pain. However, insensitivity to pain is a rare disorder, characterized by the lack of usual subjective and objective responses to noxious stimuli. Patients who have congenital indifference to pain sustain painless injuries beginning in infancy, but have sensor...
