Perception of Mechanical Properties via Wrist Haptics: Effects of Feedback Congruence
Mine Sarac,Massimiliano Di Luca,Allison M. Okamura,Mine Sarac,Massimiliano Di Luca,Allison M. Okamura
Despite non-co-location, haptic stimulation at the wrist can potentially provide feedback regarding interactions at the fingertips without encumbering the user's hand. Here we investigate how two types of skin deformation at the wrist (normal and shear) relate to the perception of the mechanical properties of virtual objects. We hypothesized that a congruent mapping (i.e. when the most relevant in...
