Can Facial Expressions Induce Haptic Perception?

Published in IEEE Transactions on Haptics, 2023

Summary

This study examined whether facial expressions can induce haptic perception. The study focused on how visual social cues, such as facial expressions, may modulate perceived touch or haptic experience.

The study contributes to the Measuring and HCI lines by examining how social cues can be experimentally arranged and measured in human–agent and haptic interaction contexts.

Research line Measuring: experimental measurement of haptic perception induced by visual social cues HCI: haptic interfaces and human–agent interaction Social cues: facial expressions as contextual cues for perceived touch Links Publisher page DOI Recommended citation
