Concept information
Preferred term
multimodal interactions: visual-haptic
Definition
- Until recently, most textbooks on human perception considered each of the senses (e.g., vision, hearing, touch, olfaction, and taste) in isolation, as if each represented an independent perceptual system. However, in most situations our senses receive correlated information about the same external objects and events, and this information is typically combined by the brain to yield the rich multisensory percepts that fill our everyday lives.
