Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to develop a new rehabilitation system, we elucidate mechanism and controllability of fusion effect of kinesthetic illusion (KI) and rubber-hand illusion (RHI). The former KI is an illusion of limb movement caused by vibration stimulus applied for muscle spindles; the latter RHI is an illusion of limb movement caused by visual stimulus of hand movement movie overlapped on human subject’s hand. In this study, we developed a new equipment generation both of KI and RHI to elucidate the fusion effect. Furthermore, we performed a series of psychophysical experiments to observe that the effect of KI was reinforced by RHI.
