Abstract
This paper describes the relationship between tactile stimulation and human body sway. We previously proposed a tactile stimulation-based body sway stabilization system and revealed that simultaneous stimulation behind both auricles significantly improved human balance function, and unilateral stimulation may induce the deviation of the center of pressure (COP). In this paper, some stimulation patterns were applied to participants and COP distribution before/after stimulation was extracted. The results showed that COP values after stimulation could be inclined to the same of the stimulation site. It indicates that tactile stimuli can control human balance function.
