  • Abstract
    Analysis of human touch sensitivity is a key for designing various haptic tools. The purpose of this paper is to design and develop an evaluation system of human touch sensitivity under various physical conditions. The system is composed of a vibrotactile probe, a non-contact stiffness sensor, a blood flow meter, and an infrared temperature sensor. We show a couple of experiments for confirming validation of the system.
