Exploring Frequency Modulation in Decoding Edge Perception Through Touch
摘要
This research explores how different vibration frequencies influence our ability to perceive and identify edges through touch. The study used a PinArray device to simulate various edge shapes, testing if participants could recognize these shapes based on pairing two frequencies (LF-HF). The findings showed that certain frequency combinations in low and medium ranges were particularly effective in conveying step edge and ridge shapes. This has important implications for enhancing tactile technology in fields like robotics and assistive devices by improving the realism of tactile virtual shapes.
