Discrimination of the moving direction is improved depending on the pattern of the mechanical tactile stimulation intervention
BackgroundThe mechanical tactile stimulation, such as plastic pins and airflow-driven membrane, induces cortical activity. The cortical activity...

Eliciting tactile sensations in the hand through non-invasive proximal nerve stimulation: a feasibility study
AbstractRecently, non-invasive proximal nerve stimulation has been widely investigated to restore tactile sensations. It has been demonstrated that...

Auditory, tactile, and multimodal noise reduce balance variability
Auditory and somatosensory white noise can stabilize standing balance. However, the differential effects of auditory and tactile noise stimulation on...
-
Hierarchical processing underpins competition in tactile perceptual bistability
Ambiguous sensory information can lead to spontaneous alternations between perceptual states, recently shown to extend to tactile perception. The...

Creating Tactile Motion
Interactions with the world and between our own body parts often result in motion across the skin, and sensory processing of this motion is of... -
Contribution of external reference frame to tactile localization
The purpose of the present study was to elucidate whether an external reference frame contributes to tactile localization in blindfolded healthy...

Neurostimulation in Tactile Perception
Neurostimulation techniques are used to study the healthy humanHuman central and peripheral nervous system non-invasively by stimulating neural... -
Atypical Development of Tactile Processing
Tactile processing is of tremendous importance during development. Touch is one of the first senses to develop, and is even active prenatally. Touch... -
Peripersonal Space from a multisensory perspective: the distinct effect of the visual and tactile components of Visuo-Tactile stimuli
Peripersonal Space (PPS) is defined as the space close to the body where all interactions between the individual and the environment take place....
