Though the shift knob merely describes an arc trajectory, we can actually perceive the bumps and holes which are related to the tactile senses which are generally called "Setsudo-kan" and "Suikomi-kan." In this paper, the features about a size and a direction of its perceived surface are shown. Furthermore, we consider that the novel approach based on the neuroscience is essential for the haptic perception phenomena. In this paper, the brain function with respect to the shift feel was investigated by fMRI.
