Torsional loads are ubiquitous during everyday dextrous manipulations. We examined how information about torque is provided to the sensorimotor control system by populations of tactile afferents. Torsional loads of different magnitudes were applied i

Tactile Discrimination of Gaps by Slowly Adapting Afferents: Effects of Population Parameters and Anisotropy in the Fingerpad

Autor: Heather E. Wheat, Antony W. Goodwin

Publikováno v: Journal of Neurophysiology. 84:1430-1444

The aim of this study was to determine the acuity of the peripheral tactile system for gaps and to determine how stimulus orientation may impact on this. We quantified the ability of humans to discriminate small differences in gap width using a force

Cutaneous afferents from the monkeys fingers: responses to tangential and normal forces

Autor: Lauren M Salo, Heather E. Wheat, Antony W. Goodwin

Publikováno v: Journal of neurophysiology. 103(2)

Control of tangential force plays a key role in everyday manipulations. In anesthetized monkeys, forces tangential to the skin were applied at a range of magnitudes comparable to those used in routine manipulations and in eight different directions.

Sensory signals in neural populations underlying tactile perception and manipulation

Autor: Heather E. Wheat, Antony W. Goodwin

▪ Abstract For humans to manipulate an object successfully, the motor control system must have accurate information about parameters such as the shape of the stimulus, its position of contact on the skin, and the magnitude and direction of contact
