Stretching the skin immediately enhances perceived stiffness and gradually enhances the predictive control of grip force

M Farajian, R Leib, H Kossowsky, T Zaidenberg… - Elife, 2020 - elifesciences.org
When manipulating objects, we use kinesthetic and tactile information to form an internal
representation of their mechanical properties for cognitive perception and for preventing their …

The effect of kinesthetic and artificial tactile noise and variability on stiffness perception

H Kossowsky, M Farajian, I Nisky - IEEE Transactions on …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Robot-assisted minimally invasive surgeries (RAMIS) have many benefits. A disadvantage,
however, is the lack of haptic feedback. Haptic feedback is comprised of kinesthetic and …

Further experimental evidence of the compressibility of arteries

OE Yossef, M Farajian, I Gilad, U Willenz… - Journal of the …, 2017 - Elsevier
Further experimental evidence on the compressibility of arteries under normal physiological
pressure range is provided using the experimental apparatus introduced in Yosibash et al., …

Visual feedback weakens the augmentation of perceived stiffness by artificial skin stretch

M Farajian, R Leib, H Kossowsky… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Tactile stimulation devices are gaining popularity in haptic science and technology-they are
lightweight, low-cost, can be wearable, and do not suffer from instability during closed loop …

The effect of variability in stiffness on perception and grip force adjustment

H Kossowsky, M Farajian, A Milstein… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Haptic information can be used to create our perception of the stiffness of objects and to
regulate grip force. Introducing noise into sensory inputs can create uncertainty, yet a method of …

Stretching the skin of the fingertip creates a perceptual and motor illusion of touching a harder spring

M Farajian, R Leib, T Zaidenberg, F Mussa-Ivaldi… - bioRxiv, 2017 - biorxiv.org
We investigated how artificial tactile feedback in the form of a skin-stretch affects perception
of stiffness and grip force adjustment. During interactions with objects, information from …

Direction-specific effects of artificial skin-stretch on stiffness perception and grip force control

M Farajian, R Leib, H Kossowsky… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
When interacting with an object, we use kinesthetic and tactile information to create our
perception of the object's properties and to prevent its slippage using grip force control. We …

The Effect of Between-Probe Variability in Haptic Feedback on Stiffness Perception and Grip Force Adjustment

H Kossowsky, M Farajian, A Milstein, I Nisky - bioRxiv, 2020 - biorxiv.org
When interacting with objects, haptic information is used to create perception of the object
stiffness and to regulate grip force. Studies have shown that introducing noise into sensory …

[PDF][PDF] It is not Likely that Tactile and Kinesthetic Information are Integrated According to Maximum-Likelihood

H Kossowsky, M Farajian, I Nisky - phrc2020icra.loria.fr
We investigated if the two haptic modalities (kinesthetic and tactile) may be integrated
according to maximum likelihood. We designed two stiffness discrimination tasks in which …

[PDF][PDF] The Effect of Vision on the Augmentation of Perceived Stiffness by Adding Artificial Skin Stretch to Kinesthetic Force

M Farajian, R Leib, I Nisky - phrc2020icra.loria.fr
We investigated how visual displacement feedback affects the augmentation of the perceived
stiffness that is caused by adding artificial skin-stretch to force feedback. This experiment …
