Tactile perception is essential for real-world manipulation tasks, yet the high cost and fragility of tactile sensors can limit their practicality. In this work, we explore BeadSight (a low-cost, open-source tactile sensor) alongside a…
Touch is the first sense among human senses. Not only that, but it is also one of the most important senses that are indispensable. However, compared to sight and hearing, it is often neglected. In particular, since humans use the tactile…
Vibrotactile signals offer new possibilities for conveying sensations and emotions in various applications. Yet, designing vibrotactile tactile icons (i.e., Tactons) to evoke specific feelings often requires a trial-and-error process and…
Guiding human movements using tactile information is one of the promising applications of haptics. Using midair ultrasonic haptic stimulation, it is possible to guide a hand without visual information.However, the information of movement…
Physical interaction between humans and robots can help robots learn to perform complex tasks. The robot arm gains information by observing how the human kinesthetically guides it throughout the task. While prior works focus on how the…
In this preliminary study we address the question of the influence of handedness on the localization of targets perceived through a visuo-auditory substitution device. Participants hold the device in one hand in order to explore the…
Operators want to maintain awareness of the structure being tested while observing sensor data. Normally the human's gaze shifts to a separate device or screen during the experiment for data information, missing the structure's physical…
In humans, the tactile perception of fine textures is mediated by skin vibrations when scanning the surface with the fingertip. These vibrations are encoded by specific mechanoreceptors, Pacinian corpuscules (PCs), located about 2 mm below…
Optical see-through augmented reality (OST-AR) overlays digital targets and annotations on the physical world, offering promising guidance for hands-on tasks such as medical needle insertion or assembly. Recent work on OST-AR depth…
This study mainly explores the application of natural gesture recognition based on computer vision in human-computer interaction, aiming to improve the fluency and naturalness of human-computer interaction through gesture recognition…
Immersive telepresence, when a user views the video stream of a $360^\circ$ camera in a remote environment using a Head Mounted Display (HMD), has great potential to improve the sense of being in a remote environment. In most cases of…
In robotic manipulation, preventing objects from slipping and establishing a secure grip on them is critical. Successful manipulation requires tactile sensors that detect the microscopic incipient slip phenomenon at the contact surface.…
While user's perception & performance are predominantly examined independently in virtual reality, the Action-Specific Perception (ASP) theory postulates that the performance of an individual on a task modulates this individual's spatial &…
There is a growing demand for teleoperated robots. This paper presents a novel method for reducing vibration noise generated by robot's own motion, which can disrupt the quality of tactile feedback for teleoperated robots. Our approach…
Teleoperation of robotic systems for precise and delicate object grasping requires high-fidelity haptic feedback to obtain comprehensive real-time information about the grasp. In such cases, the most common approach is to use kinesthetic…
We present the sense of effort through vibration to help the video viewer understand how the person in the video moves the body. We suppose sense of effort is related to force, so we generate vibration based on force and present the sense…
Perceptual processes are frequently multi-modal. This is the case of haptic perception. Data sets of visual and haptic sensory signals have been compiled in the past, especially when it comes to the exploration of textured surfaces. These…
Distributed tactile sensing remains difficult to scale over large areas: dense sensor arrays increase wiring, cost, and fragility, while many alternatives provide limited coverage or miss fast interaction dynamics. We present Sound of…
Humans can leverage physical interaction to teach robot arms. As the human kinesthetically guides the robot through demonstrations, the robot learns the desired task. While prior works focus on how the robot learns, it is equally important…
In this study we investigated the effect of body ownership illusion-based body scaling on physics plausibility in Virtual Reality (VR). Our interest was in examining whether body ownership illusion-based body scaling could affect the…
