World in your hand: Investigating the underlying mechanism of thermal material recognition and its interaction with multisensory information

在2022财年，我们成功建立了必要的研究环境并获得了所需的研究设施。我们开展了基于热线索和热与触觉线索融合的材料识别人体实验。我们发现了一种可以预测主观材料判断的热物理性质，并确定了热和触觉线索的整合规则。我们在国内会议上提出了这些调查结果。我们的发现有可能为再现材料特性的触觉技术的工程设计提供信息，最终增强用户体验。

In FY2022, we successfully established the necessary research environments and acquired the required research facilities. We carried out human experiments on material recognition based on thermal cues and the integration between thermal and tactile cues. We found a thermophysical property that can predict the subjective material judgement and identify an integration rule for thermal and tactile cues.We have presented these findings in domestic meetings. Our findings have the potential to inform the engineering design of haptic technologies for reproducing material characteristics, ultimately enhancing user experiences.
