Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The information about an object is built by different sensory modalities that converge somewhere in the human brain to form representations that are invariant to the input modality. To develop a high quality surface machining system, the following researches were implemented: 1) Investigation of interactions between haptic and visual perceptions of fine surface texture. 2) Development of MRI-compatible tactile and visual stimuli presentation system. 3) Investigation of brain activations related to cross-modal interactions of haptic-visual texture matching. 4) Discussion of functional asymmetry processing of haptic-visual roughness information transformation. 5) Development of a database including material and surface qualities physical parameter and brain activation patterns.
