New method in sensation transferring trough internet

In human communication we see, smell, and touch things to understand the fact of them. We suggest a new way to touch things through the Internet and in a virtual world. We experience a new method of transferring sensation data through the Internet which can be applied widely in human communication. Tactation is the sensation perceived by the sense of touch. Tactation is based on the skin receptors. The skin nerves can be stimulated by mechanical, electrical or thermal stimuli. We conducted an initial study on tactile sensory characteristics of the fingers by applying electrotactile array stimulation. We performed experiments of threshold measurement, to evaluate the tactile sensitivity and spatial discriminating ability of the fingers, respectively. Three stimulator arrays of different sizes presented electrotactile patterns on the finger of person to measure the electrotactile performance in relation to stimulator size and spacing
