Expansion of Detection Thresholds for Hand Redirection using Noisy Tendon Electrical Stimulation

Abstract

Figure 1: Hand redirection with noisy tendon electrical stimulation. Participants wore electrodes around the elbow of the right arm, and were exposed to weak, noisy electric stimulation during reaching tasks. In the virtual environment, each participant moved the tip of their index finger from the warp origin in front of them straight to the target at the back. Only the virtual hand, displaced from the actual hand position corresponding to the amount of movement, was visually presented.
