Frequency of Switching Touching Mode Reflects Tactile Preference Judgment.

ABSTRACT: We can judge affective aspects of objects by actively exploring them with our hands. Previous studies have mainly focused on how the physical properties of an object's surface affect tactile preference evaluations. However, despite the widely accepted notion that the participant's strategy has a great impact on how they explore an object, there is a lack of investigations of hand motion during preference judgment and its impact on preference rating. This paper recruits the recurrence plot technique to illustrate the temporal dynamics of explorative hand motion. In an experiment, participants were asked to freely explore the surface of tactile stimuli and rate their tactile preference for them. The temporal dynamics of finger velocity and force were visualized and characterized by using rec
