Abstract The sense of touch codes the detection and properties physical objects on body via mechanoreceptors within skin. Technological advancements, such as ultrasonic haptic devices, are now able to ‘touch without touching’, claiming this is virtual touch. An initial aim study was investigate subjective intensity pleasantness ratings ultrasound stimulation influence top-down factors using Touch Experience Attitudes Questionnaire (TEAQ).

<title>Abstract</title> The diversity of mechanical pain sensations in humans cannot be explained based on our current understanding pain-sensing neural classes the skin. To begin to bridge this gap, we dissected basis a distinct form sensation evoked by hair pulling humans. Based observations rare group individuals with PIEZO2 deficiency syndrome, demonstrated that hair-pull is dependent transduction. Single-unit axonal recordings revealed specific class cooling-responsive, rapidly...
