| Research Abstract |
This study addressed the four research topics concerning haptic invitation, a phenomenon with wich object surfaces appeal to human touch. First, this study proposed and validated a new index for evaluating to what degree humans feel inclined to touch the surface (the degree of haptic invitation). In addition, it was experimentally shown that the combination of human sensory factors can describe the degree of haptic invitation to the extent of 75%. In other words, haptic invitation is intimately related with human perception of object surfaces. Furthermore, invited touch motions such as push or stroke, and the sensory evaluations of textures are stochastically modeled. Finally, visually prominent textures were turned out to invite human touch, which are psychophysically effective to probe the prominent properties of the texture.
