In the last decade, we have witnessed a drastic change in the form factor of audio and vision
technologies, from heavy and grounded machines to lightweight devices that naturally fit our …

Weight is perceived through the combination of multiple sensory systems, and a wide range
of factors–including touch, visual, and force senses–can influence the perception of …

Research in aviation and driving has highlighted the importance of training as an effective
approach to reduce the costs associated with the supervisory role of the human in …

Physical interactions within virtual environments are often limited to visual information within
a restricted workspace. A new system exploiting a cable-driven parallel robot to combine …

Tissue trauma is a frequent complication of cochlear implantation (CI) surgery, but the
relationship between intracochlear trauma, electrode insertion forces, and surgeons' ability …

We examined the contributions of kinesthetic and skin stretch cues to static weight
perception. In three psychophysical experiments, several aspects of static weight perception …

Simulation based training methods are gaining popularity as they could provide a platform
for practitioners to gain hands-on experience without causing ethical issues. By combining …

Objective This work lays the foundation for future research on quantitative modeling of
human stiffness perception. Our goal was to develop a method by which a human's ability to …

Objective Previous studies determined, using between arms position matching
assessments, that at least one-half of individuals with stroke have an impaired position …

Current literature suggests that greater than 50% of survivors of a stroke cannot accurately
perceive where their upper extremity is positioned. Our recent work demonstrates that the …
