Perceptual thresholds for haptic texture discrimination

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingArticle in proceedingsResearchpeer-review

The current study sheds light on the discrimination of haptic texture, of real life surfaces, to find out the thresholds beyond which two surfaces become perceptually difíérent· For this purpose, a perceptual space using 84 real life textures was established by employing multi-dimensional scaling. Afterwards, a subset of 16 surfaces was experimentally selected for which the haptic texture thresholds were determined. Finally, these thresholds were deployed in the form of extended convex hulls. It was found out that surfaces appearing within the convex hull are perceptually similar.
