Abstract:
Several cross-modal augmentation research on food texture has been conducted in recent years. These results revealed that pseudo-mastication sound can affect the perception of food texture. However, there have been few studies on food texture using vibrotactile stimuli to the whole body. Thus, we proposed a method of presenting vibrotactile stimuli using mastication sound or myoelectric potential under mastication. Twelve subjects participated in the experiment and were asked to rate nine adjective-pairs related to the food texture of two types of food. The results showed that the proposed method affects the perception of the hardness, crispiness, chewiness, freshness, and thickness of certain foods.
