  3. Tactile technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactile_technology

    The word "tactile" means "related to the sense of touch" [1] or "that can be perceived by the touch; tangible". [2] Touch is incredibly important to human communication and learning, but increasingly, most of the content people interact with is purely visual. Tactile technology presents a way to use advances in technology and combined with touch.

  4. Somatosensory system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatosensory_system

    This photo shows tactile markings identifying stairs for visually impaired people. The somatosensory system, or somatic sensory system is a subset of the sensory nervous system. It has two subdivisions, one for the detection of mechanosensory information related to touch, and the other for the nociception detection of pain and temperature. [1]

  5. Sensory processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_processing

    Sensory processing deals with how the brain processes sensory input from multiple sensory modalities. These include the five classic senses of vision (sight), audition (hearing), tactile stimulation ( touch ), olfaction (smell), and gustation (taste).

    Sensory cravings, [13] including, for example, fidgeting, impulsiveness, and/or seeking or making loud, disturbing noises; and sensorimotor-based problems, including slow and uncoordinated movements or poor handwriting. Sensory discrimination problems, which might manifest themselves in behaviors such as things constantly dropped. [citation needed]

    It was created in the aftermath of the 2001 anthrax attacks that killed five people, including two postal workers. [2] [3] The automated mail tracking program was created so that the Postal Service could more easily track hazardous substances and keep people safe, according to U.S. Postmaster General Patrick R. Donahoe. [2]

  8. Real-time Control System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_Control_System

    A reference model architecture is a canonical form, not a system design specification. The RCS reference model architecture combines real-time motion planning and control with high level task planning, problem solving, world modeling, recursive state estimation, tactile and visual image processing, and acoustic signature analysis.

  9. Astereognosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astereognosis

    Astereognosis (or tactile agnosia if only one hand is affected) is the inability to identify an object by active touch of the hands without other sensory input, such as visual or sensory information. An individual with astereognosis is unable to identify objects by handling them, despite intact elementary tactile, proprioceptive, and thermal ...
