Seeing Through Touch: The Role of Haptic Information in Visualization

摘要: This chapter presents evidence for the development of visualizationbreak through touch when in circumstances where no visual information is provided. Results reported here show that local translated into gestalt whole visualized patterns. It further shows haptics, perception touch, has semantics and specific force patterns constitute haptic interactions act as elements are images. shown regions occipital brain, especially Lateral Occipital Tactile-Visual Area, activated subjects attempt to recognize a shape haptically. Visualization provides holistic views based on sensory cues. Haptic contributes micro details visualization while macro contributed by human-visual system. concluded these findings about processes – have major implications design cognitive technology with intention improving learning. A combination cues advantageous learning, providing more than each construction meaningful image world.
