Research Abstract |
We can easily recognize materials of which an object is made (wood, metal, fabric etc.) at a glance. We investigated what neural mechanisms in human and monkey brains underlie the material perception by using functional magnetic resonance imaging. Our results provided the first evidences that the ventral higher order visual areas in humans and monkeys represent visuotactile material properties such as hardness and roughness. We suggest that these areas play important roles on material perception.
