Abstract
In this paper, we conducted psychophysical tests to investigate the effect of the directionality of human tactile sensation capability in discriminating fine step-heights. We evaluated the capability to discriminate the step-heights of 0-20 μm moving in the directions of 0,45 and 90 deg. The results show that the different directions of touching manner affect mechanism of human tactile sensation for recognizing surface textures.
