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 …

The tactile experience of fabric is not only a sensory experience but also an affective one.
Our choice of fabric products, like clothing, is often based on how they feel. Effectively …

Purpose The affectivity is conceptualised in the literary work of phenomenological theories
as a significant factor in urban environments studies that are related to change people's …

Haptic Feedback is essential for lifelike Virtual Reality (VR) experiences. To provide a wide
range of matching sensations of being touched or stroked, current approaches typically …

The development of tactile screens opens new perspectives for co-located images and
haptic rendering, leading to the concept of “haptic images.” They emerge from the …

Tactile perception of the material properties in real-time using tiny embedded systems is a
challenging task and of grave importance for dexterous object manipulation such as …

The sound produced when touching fabrics, like a blanket, often provides information
regarding the fabric's texture properties (eg, its roughness). Fabric roughness is one of the …

This paper aims to investigate the semantic perceptual space of synthetic tactile textures
rendered via an ultrasonic based haptic tablet and the parameters influencing this space …

Thermal feedback has been proven to enhance user experience in human-machine
interactions. Yet state-of-the-art thermal technology has focused on the single finger or palm …

In recent years, using non-trained individuals in sensory science for analytical tasks has
gained traction. Identifying attributes enabling non-experts to express perceptions is crucial …
