The human finger plays an extremely important role in tactile perception, but little is known about the role of its biophysical properties (mechanical properties, contact properties and surface topography) in tactile perception. In addition, the touch gestures used to perceive an object’s properties differ among people. We combined studies on the biophysical properties and the vibrations measured from the human finger to understand the age and gender effects on the tactile perception and the difference between the touch gestures. In addition, a new algorithm, Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs), was used to analyze the vibratory signal obtained from the physical contact of the finger, and a surface is proposed and validated. The values obtained regarding the correlation between the tribohaptic system results and the biophysical properties show that the Young’s modulus and the surface topography are the most important. An inverse correlation was observed between the MFCC and the tactile perception. This last observation explained the results of better tactile perception with left to right touch gestures. It also demonstrated a better tactile perception for women. |
