Thea van der Geest; H.P. Buimer; M. Bittner; T. Kostelijk; A. Nemri; R.J.A. van Wezel; Y. Zhao

In face-to-face social interactions, blind and visually impaired persons (VIPs) lack access to nonverbal cues like facial expressions, body posture, and gestures, which may lead to impaired interpersonal communication. In this study, a wearable sensory substitution device (SSD) consisting of a head mounted …

The effect of real-time vibrotactile feedback delivered through an augmented fork on eating rate, satiation, and food intake

Roel C. J. Hermans (Onderzoeker); Sander Hermsen (Lid Lectoraat); Eric Robinson (Onderzoeker); Suzanne Higgs (Onderzoeker); Monica Mars (Onderzoeker); Jeana H. Frost (Onderzoeker)

Eating rate is a basic determinant of appetite regulation, as people who eat more slowly feel sated earlier and eat less. Without assistance, eating rate is difficult to modify due to its automatic nature. In the current study, participants used an augmented fork that aimed to decelerate their rate of …
