Contact with sliding over a rotating ridged surface: the turntable illusion

Written by
The mechanical interaction between the skin and the environment is important in shaping our knowledge of object properties. In addition, the response of cutaneous mechanoreceptors also contributes to our sense of limb position and motion.…

Touch for spatial and motion representation: mathematical modelling and applications for advanced human-machine interaction.

Written by
The sense of touch plays an important role to build a perceptual representation of motion and space. This aspect deserves specific attention since it can guide the technological development of devices that can encode relevant…

A model predictive control framework to control hand movements relying on tactile illusions

Written by
Recent studies showed that the sense of touch is able to guide hand movements. When a blindfolded subject slides his/her finger-pad on a ridged plate to reach a target, the contribution of tactile feedback induces…

Design and Validation of the Readable Device: A Single-Cell Electromagnetic Refreshable Braille Display

Written by
Blindness represents one of the major disabling societal causes, impacting the life of visually impaired people and their families. For what concerns the access to written information, one of the main tools used by blind…

On the Role of Lateral Force in Texture-Induced Motion Bias During Reaching Tasks

Written by
In the previous work, we reported that tactile information (tactile slip) during finger sliding and reaching actions over a textured surface contributes to the control of the hand movement. More specifically, we observed a significant…
