Some materials feel colder to the touch than others, and we can use this difference in
perceived coldness for material recognition. This review focuses on the mechanisms …

Touch is an inherent source of tactile sensation in everyday life, followed by vision and
audition. For rich tactile feedback, multimodal haptic feedback is necessary because a …

Thermal contact resistance at the finger-object interface plays a significant role in our
thermal perception and is an important parameter for the design of a myriad of electronics …

A few experimental studies on thermal tactile perception have shown the influence of the
thermal contact resistance which relates to contact surface roughness and pressure. In this …

This paper investigates the influence of contact force applied to the human's fingertip on the
perception of hot and cold temperatures, studying how variations in contact force may affect …

Currently, there is ongoing investigation into the utilization of microwave technology for non-
invasive estimation of glycaemia in individuals with diabetes. The utilization of non-invasive …

An overview of tactile-thermal interactions is given from the perspective of cutaneous
displays that are designed to enhance either object recognition or information transmission …

The theoretical and experimental study of a thermal model describing the thermal response
of skin when a finger contacts with materials are presented in the paper. Few studies have …

Integrating thermal interactions in multimodal systems requires understanding both users
sensory abilities and the thermal behaviors of the surrounding environment. Thermal …

This thesis studied the effect of different stimulus parameters on the thermal response of the
skin. A set of thermal patterns, known as thermal icons, was presented to participants using …
