Tactile slip and hand displacement: Bending hand motion with tactile illusions

Touch provides an important cue to perceive the physical properties of the external objects. Recent studies showed that tactile sensation also contributes to our sense of hand position and displacement in perceptual tasks. In this study, we tested the...

Towards a technology-based assessment of sensory-motor pathological states through tactile illusions

— Touch provides important information on the physical properties of external objects, and contributes to the sense of our hand position and displacement in perceptual tasks. Recent studies showed that the texture of the touched surface produced a bias...

Touch as an auxiliary proprioceptive cue for movement control

Recent studies extended the classical view that touch is mainly devoted to the perception of the external world. Perceptual tasks where the hand was stationary demonstrated that cutaneous stimuli from contact with objects provide the illusion of hand...

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

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. In previous...
