IEEE Transactions on Haptics: Special Issue on Haptics in Neuroscience
This special issue calls for papers related to the study of the neural basis of haptic perception and to technologies designed for haptic interaction. In particular, topics will include: • The psychophysics of touch and its physiological basis in the peripheral and central nervous systems • Computational models of the skin, the peripheral nerve, and/or central processing of somatosensory information • Approaches to convey somatosensory feedback through neural interfaces • Haptic devices that generate well-controlled tactile and kinesthetic stimuli for use in psychophysical, neuroimaging and neurophysiological studies • Devices and experimental studies that measure the skin response during haptic interactions • Haptic interfaces, sensors and devices that are inspired by the biology of touch Timeline December 31, 2015 Deadline for paper submissions February 1, 2016 First decisions to authors May 1, 2016 Second decisions to authors August 1, 2016 Final publication materials due from authors November 1, 2016 Special issue publication Submission Process Visit http://www.computer.org/toh to view formatting requirements, and submit your paper at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/th-cs.
