Interactions between vision and touch

这个项目将详细研究在构建我们的知觉体验时，感官信息是如何跨不同的通道整合的。这有可能被纳入基于计算机的虚拟现实类型技术的开发中。该项目将把两名成功的澳大利亚研究人员的研究活动联系起来，进一步发展他们新的和有前途的合作。该研究计划将吸引高质量的本地和国际学生到澳大利亚接受基础心理学研究培训。这项研究发表在顶尖的国际期刊上，将促进澳大利亚科学在国外的发展。

This project will investigate in detail how sensory information is integrated across different modalities in constructing our perceptual experiences. This has the potential to be incorporated into the development of virtual reality-type computer-based technologies. The project will link the research activities of two successful Australian researchers, further developing their new and promising collaboration. The research programme will attract high quality local and international students for training in basic psychology research in Australia. The publication of this research in top ranking international journals will promote Australian science abroad.
