The aim of the present work is to introduce a novel wearable device suitable to be used to
investigate perception in interactive tasks, on individuals with and without sensory
disabilities. The system is composed by small units embedded with sensors and actuators
that allows emitting different kind of stimuli (light, haptic, sound) and to record the user
response, thanks to a capacitive sensor. We validated the system by implementing an

The aim of the present work is to introduce a novel wearable device suitable to be used to investigate perception in interactive tasks, on individuals with and without sensory disabilities. The system is composed by small units embedded with sensors and actuators that allows emitting different kind of stimuli (light, haptic, sound) and to record the user response, thanks to a capacitive sensor. We validated the system by implementing an interception task in three different sensory modalities: visual, tactile and auditory. Six subjects with normal sight were asked to tap either a static or a moving stimulus generated by 6 units placed on their forearm. Results suggest that the system can effectively provide new insights in characterizing how perception principles vary when perceptual judgement occurs through different senses. This confirms the device potential in contributing to the design of rehabilitation protocols rooted on neuroscientific findings, for people with sensory impairments.
