<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Offers a unique multidisciplinary overview of how humans interact with soft objects and how multiple sensory signals are used to perceive material properties, with an emphasis on object deformability. The authors describe a range of setups that have been employed to study and exploit sensory signals involved in interactions with compliant objects as well as techniques to simulate and modulate softness - including a psychophysical perspective of the field.</p><p><i>Multisensory Softness</i> focuses on the cognitive mechanisms underlying the use of multiple sources of information in softness perception. Divided into three sections, the first <i>Perceptual Softness</i> deals with the sensory components and computational requirements of softness perception, the second <i>Sensorimotor Softness</i> looks at the motor components of the interaction with soft objects and the final part <i>Artificial Softness</i> focuses on the identification of exploitable guidelines to help replicate softness in artificial environments.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>Offers a unique multidisciplinary overview of how humans interact with soft objects and how multiple sensory signals are used to perceive material properties, with an emphasis on object deformability.
