Buttock Skin Stretch

This study presents a new concept of buttock skin stretch to induce the perception of shear force while sitting. We developed a single degree-of-freedom skin stretch device to deform the buttock skin in the lateral direction. We investigated the relationship between contactor displacement and perceived shear force, and the bias effect to perceived acceleration of self-motion induced by vection illusion.
