This study examines the impact of asynchronous bi-manual discrimination tasks compared to uni-manual discrimination tasks on kinesthetic perception. Our study aims to reveal the relationship between kinesthetic perception of haptic signals by examining perceptual thresholds in three different scenarios using (i) the dominant hand, (ii) the non-dominant hand, and (iii) both hands simultaneously to differentiate between two successive signals. Subjects exposed to force signals in these three situations conveyed their perceptions of alterations in signal magnitude after each trial. Subsequently, we applied psychometric functions to the collected responses to determine perceptual thresholds. Our results indicate a substantial difference in threshold values between bi-manual and uni-manual scenarios, with the bi-manual scenario exhibiting higher thresholds, indicating inferior perceptual ability when both hands are simultaneously utilized in two separate discrimination tasks. Furthermore, our investigation reveals distinct perception thresholds between the dominant and non-dominant hands, owing to differences in the perceptual capability of the two hands. These findings provide substantial insight into how the nature of tasks may alter kinesthetic perception, offering implications for the development of haptic interfaces in practical applications.","PeriodicalId":13215,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Haptics","volume":"17 1","pages":"116-121"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139697279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The most common tools used to assess tactile sensation, the Semmes-Weinstein monofilaments and the 128 Hz tuning fork, have poor repeatability and resolution. Long term, we aim to provide a repeatable, high-resolution testing platform that can be used to assess vibrotactile perception through smartphones without the need for an experimenter to be present to conduct the test. We present a smartphone-based vibration perception measurement platform and compare its performance to measurements from standard monofilament and tuning fork tests. We conducted a user study with 36 healthy adults in which we tested each tool on the hand, wrist, and foot, to assess how well our smartphone-based vibration perception thresholds (VPTs) detect known trends obtained from standard tests. The smartphone platform detected statistically significant changes in VPT between the index finger and foot and also between the feet of younger adults and older adults. Our smartphone-based VPT had a moderate correlation to tuning fork-based VPT. Our overarching objective is to develop an accessible smartphone-based platform that can eventually be used to measure disease progression and regression.","PeriodicalId":13215,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Haptics","volume":"17 4","pages":"970-977"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139691686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, high-frequency, immediate control actions lead to a degradation of transparency. In this paper, we propose a method to relax the conservatism of haptic interaction and enhance stable impedance range while maintaining high transparency. Based on the observation of energy exchange behavior in pressing and releasing paths in haptic interaction, we introduce an energy cycle as a completion of a pressing and releasing path. With this new concept, we compare the energies at the end of each energy cycle to estimate the energy generation and inject adaptive damping to regulate it over upcoming cycles. Because we wait a pressing-releasing cycle is completed, we allow energy to be generated, but we regulate the amount of generated energy over upcoming cycles by injecting adaptive damping. In this way, we perform low-frequency control actions on system dynamics. These in turn enable us to achieve high transparency. We show the validity of the proposed approach through several simulations and experiments, and show that it enhances the stable impedance range and transparency compared to the TDPA.","PeriodicalId":13215,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Haptics","volume":"17 1","pages":"100-107"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139575624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there are still several limitations that affect the manipulation, including the lack of mutual visual occlusion between virtual and real content as well as the lack of haptic sensations. To address the two abovementioned matters, the role of the visuo-haptic rendering of the hand as sensory feedback is investigated. The first experiment explores the effect of showing the hand of the user as seen by the AR system through an avatar, comparing six visual hand rendering. The second experiment explores the effect of the visuo-haptic hand rendering by comparing two vibrotactile contact techniques provided at four delocalized positions on the hand and combined with the two most representative visual hand renderings from the first experiment. Results show that delocalized vibrotactile haptic hand rendering improved perceived effectiveness, realism, and usefulness when provided close to the contact point. However, the farthest rendering position, i.e., on the contralateral hand, gave the best performance even though it was largely disliked. The visual hand rendering was perceived as less necessary for manipulation when the haptic hand rendering was available, but still provided useful feedback on the hand tracking.","PeriodicalId":13215,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Haptics","volume":"17 2","pages":"277-291"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139567097","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We 3D printed triangular prisms with various edge sharpness and half-edge widths in the full-scale range and conducted 2AFC tasks to gain the haptic threshold distribution. Results show that the distribution curves of the sharpness threshold and its contact area have a similar inflection point at 115\u0000<inline-formula><tex-math>$^circ$</tex-math></inline-formula>\u0000, implying a boundary between medium-low and high stimuli. It is also found that Weber fractions in the medium stimulus range follow Weber's Law and are consistent with previous studies but lower than the mean of Weber fractions in the high stimulus range. Besides, there is no significant difference in upper and lower thresholds in the medium-low stimulus range but a significant difference in the high stimulus range with the higher upper threshold. Variations in contact area do not affect sharpness discrimination ability when the half-edge width exceeds 2 mm. However, decreasing the half-edge width from 2 mm to 1 mm significantly reduces haptic sensitivity. Our findings offer preliminary evidence contributing to understanding haptic perception in edge sharpness discrimination, encompassing the properties of objects and object-individual interfaces.","PeriodicalId":13215,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Haptics","volume":"17 3","pages":"451-460"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139563835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many examples in the literature explore the effects of both haptic assistance or guidance to complete a task, as well as haptic hindrance to temporarily increase task difficulty for the ultimate goal of faster learning. Studies also suggest adaptively changing guidance based on expertise may be most effective. However, to our knowledge, there has not yet been a conclusive study evaluating these enhancement modes in a systematic experiment. In this article, we evaluate learning outcomes for 24 human subjects in a randomized control trial performing a Fitt's law reaching task under various haptic feedback conditions including: no haptics, assistive haptics, resistive haptics, and adaptively changing haptics tied to current performance measures. Subjects each performed 400 trials total and this paper reports results for 40 pre-test and 40 post-test trials. While most conditions did show improvements in performance, we found statistically significant results indicating that our adaptive haptic feedback condition leads to faster and more effective learning as evidenced by metrics of movement time, overshoot, performance index, and speed when compared to the other groups.","PeriodicalId":13215,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Haptics","volume":"17 1","pages":"92-99"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139563869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
