    There are tons of things I had never considered about how difficult it is to fool your brain into thinking it's touching something it's not. I think the most important technical issue to overcome is timing. Much like how your brain can understand hearing someone's voice AFTER seeing their lips move, but not the opposite... the lag time of the sense of touch is an important thing for your brain. Another thing I hand't considered is the "rise time" that has to do with internal stresses in your fingers. If you conceptualize your fingers as water balloons around bones, you can understand how the internal pressure of your fingers rise the harder you press something. This type of information coupled with the "Sensory Homunculus" make for some incredibly fulfilling thought experiments.
    The temperature question is something I'm particularly interested in. Using a colder fluid to model a room temperature fluid because of the heat transfer equation is a fascinating area of scientific problem solving. If you think it through, everything about this boils down to differential equations. How much heat is leaking out of the hand, and at what rate, through what contact area?

    I asked HaptX for a blurb to explain their company. This is what they came up with:
    HaptX is a multidisciplinary team of engineers based in San Luis Obispo, CA and Seattle, WA that builds advanced haptic technology. Their first product, HaptX Gloves, brings touch feedback to VR with unprecedented realism, enabling a new category of industrial training simulations. Founded by Jake Rubin and Dr. Bob Crockett in 2012, HaptX won’t stop until you can’t tell what’s real from what’s virtual. Learn more at haptx.com.

      All my channels follow each-other! Guess we're all nerds. Anyways, isn't there a kinda workaround to that?
      Can't the company issue a small sum of money to you (even 1$), and have you sign a NDA too?
      Obviously it wouldn't make it to the video, but on a personal level it could open the conversation up.
      Would still require a decent amount of company trust though, because if you violate it, even if they take you to court, it's already too late for their secrets.

      Hey now, don't be mean. It's perfectly natural to assume that one of the most sensitive parts of your body would have the most nerve endings unless you were informed otherwise. It certainly hurts more than any other part of your body if you get hit there.
      EDIT: Except for your eyes, of course.

    • @MiniDemonic
      @MiniDemonic 6 років тому

      Except that your genitals aren't the most sensitive parts of your body. Pain is sensed by nociceptors while touch and vibrations are sensed by mechanoreceptors. So you can't really compare the two feelings as they aren't sensed by the same receptors.

Not that long ago we watched TV and used the internet for emails and chat rooms saying it wouldn't amount to much for decades. Yet here we are. You have to start somewhere with an idea.

      Def not 20-50 years. Surgeons already learn on many machines and simulations. Haptic simulators aren't THAT far off. Nothing will compare to a real body, but no one person's body is the same anyway -- so it doesn't need to be exact. It's all about practice and building up to the real thing anyway, not being 100% the same. I'd say we're closer to 5 years, though SOME of this tech is already employed in teaching facilities. Edit: With only 15 or so, tops, for more live medical application. We already use tech on patients where robots are an extension of the surgeon's hands, directed by the surgeon. It's just not reliant on haptic feedback.

    @SilentGloves 6 років тому +76

    I'm sure you already know this, but the sensation of "hot" is not actually it's own sensation, it's warm + cold sensations happening simultaneously. You can simulate "hot" by setting your faucet to a light stream of slightly warm water, and having a cup of ice water. Place your finger under the warm stream from the sink, and then pour the cold water right next to the warm water. Right near the interface between the two, you will perceive "hot." If done just right, you'll instinctively yank your hand away and feel like you've burnt your finger for about 10 minutes. Great fun at parties. I'm betting these guys must've dealt with that in some way, because it would be extremely easy to cause actual discomfort with high enough resolution cold and warm water cells in proximity. I'd even go so far as to say that they probably have a proprietary "faux burning" simulation that they've used to trick coworkers. If I worked there, I would've definitely done that. :D

    • @MiniDemonic
      @MiniDemonic 6 років тому +11

      Your thermoreceptors senses the absolute and relative change in temperature, that's why it feels burning when you go from really cold to slightly warm because the relative change in temperarute is big. If you want to be technical then "cold" doesn't really exist. Heat is the movement of atoms, the more atoms move the hotter something is.

    • @sylvestrehucher8621
      @sylvestrehucher8621 6 років тому +2

      I'm looking for some more information about the way thermoreceptors are working, like how the sensors under our skin can perceive the excitement of atoms. I'd be glad if you can help me.

    • @MiniDemonic
      @MiniDemonic 6 років тому +2

      You have two kinds of termoreceptors, one that senses warmth and one that senses cold. So SilentGloves is wrong in stating that "the sensation of hot is not it's own sensation".
      There is technically nothing that's cold, it's only a lack of heat. Heat is generated when atoms vibrate or bump into eachother, you can't generate cold you can only take away heat. You can't take away all heat though, as far as we know reaching 0 Kelvin (absolute zero) is impossible. It is possible to go lower than 0 Kelvin though. It seems weird but it really isn't when you think about it. At 0 Kelvin atoms wouldn't be moving at all and be at a 100% stand still, but if you go into negative Kelvin then they start moving again but in the opposite direction.
      To explain how termoreceptors work you need to go into advanced biology which is kinda confusing. The simple way to think of it is:
      Your thermoreceptors are just a part of your sensory neurons, they send signals to your brain via electric discharge (like all nerves and neurons do). The warm receptors discharge faster when they are warm and slower when they are cold while the cold receptors discharge faster when they are cold and slower when they are warm, they can do that because they are made from different fibers and have different conductivity. Some cold receptors discharge at high temperatures though, above 45c, and the reason why is unknown.
      Now, don't quote me on this explanation as it's a vast oversimplification by some random dude in UA-cam comments. If you want to learn more I would suggest getting a book about the subject, I can't really recommend one unfortunately but a quick Google search brought me to "Thermal Sensations and Thermoreceptors in Man" by Herbert Hensel which seems to be good but I haven't read it.

    • @SilentGloves
      @SilentGloves 6 років тому +3

      Yes, yes. My point was that when the "cold receptors discharge at high temperatures, above 45c," humans perceive the combined firing of warm and cold receptors as "very hot" and the reflex arc neural pathway responds without giving the brain any chance to make a decision. The brain is too slow. So, you accidentally grab a plate that's say, 180 degrees F, both receptors fire like mad, and your spinal cord decides for you that this is not ideal. Your hand automatically retracts and you jump around like an idiot for a while. You can fake this sensation by triggering both warmth receptors and "lack of warmth" receptors in close proximity with warm and cold water.

      They explain it in the video, but it's due to the thermal conductivity of the material. Suppose you pick up a book in one hand, and a sheet of metal in the other. Even though they're both the same temperature, the metal draws heat away from your hand faster than the book does. Because of this, you perceive the metal to be colder, even though it's not.

      Another point is that Google and 23andme have close relationships and 23andme states that they will keep your information in their database . This makes me worry that like Google, 23andme will change their terms of service and start actively selling data.

    I would love to see the code behind how they have tied the physics engine to their physical interface.. my first thought would be you would want to create an abstraction layer (an entirly new layer) that basically identifies all physical objects, giving them new properties, those properties would have information that sends to a new "touch engine" the touch engine would take input whenever your hand (or other parts that can "feel") touches any object, reading those properties and applying those to the engine..
    that way you can just basically develop the code that applies all the properties to the touching mechanism... touch sensativity.. hardness.. softness... etc etc..
    then just give rules to all the physical objects that hold these properties.
    I'm a software engineer as well as a mechanical engineer, I love that all these different engineering worlds are coming together now..
    I'm back at University doing neuroscience now with a minor is psychology, as I have moved in to Artificial Intelligence as my future focus...

    I’ve never been so mesmerized by my sense of touch. I can’t stop touching things

    The problem is when these gloves come to the market they will be 5k minimum.

      I will get the off brand version for fraction of the price.

      They can sell the gloves at an affordable price by charging only what it costs to manufacture them. They could even charge less. To make up for costs and make a profit, they can over charge software companies for the ability to use their product in their programs. Or, they could just sell the technology and rights to companies to manufacture the product. The more companies the cost is split between, the less each company would need to pay. The less a company pays, the less the consumer needs to pays.

      They're going to market it for industrial training applications at first and, I assume, consumer applications later. David, low equipment price would just be half of the solution for attracting people to buy it. The more important part is that there be software people want to use with the product. You won't entice developers to make software for your product if you offload most of the cost to them. If they sold the technology license to other companies to manufacture, the problem of how to make it cost-effective would still be someone's problem.
