Visually inferring the stiffness of objects is important for many tasks but is challenging

The softness of objects can be perceived through several senses. For instance, to judge the
softness of a cat's fur, we do not only look at it, we often also run our fingers through its coat …

Lifting an object requires precise scaling of fingertip forces based on a prediction of object
weight. At object contact, a series of tactile and visual events arise that need to be rapidly …

have shown a correlation between participants'(ie, touchers') hand motion in tactile
exploration and the evaluated tactile attributes of the object, which suggests that tactile …

Material perception—the visual perception of stuff—is an emerging field in vision research.
We recognize materials from shape, color and texture features. This paper is a selective …

The softness of objects can be perceived through several senses. For instance, to judge the
