Description
Summary:Multisensory lab based in Peking University, has carried out basic studies in multisensory space and time processing, intersensory binding and haptic / tactile perception. We exploited a typical paradigm of multisensory illusion-temporal ventriloquist effect and applied it in a wide range of multisensory interactions (mainly focused on temporal processing). In this work, we summarized how the tactile stimuli were exploited to compose tactile cues and as tactile apparent motion to interface with other sensory stimuli (visual and auditory stimuli) to examine the underlying perceptual organization in a multisensory context. Moreover, we introduced two examples of wearable haptic/tactile perception in our lab, by using two customized tactile devices and discussed the potential applications in this field. Keywords: Multisensory, Ventriloquism effect, Wearable haptics, Perceptual organization
