Summary:The purpose of this study is to analyze the cognitive characteristics that can be induced by vibration stimuli at two intensities, three frequencies, and five presentation periods. The experiment was conducted on 20 right-handed adult males, and a subjective evaluation was performed using a questionnaire. Regression analysis was performed to observe the parameters affecting cognitive characteristics according to changes in intensity, frequency, and stimulation duration. The regression analysis results showed that the cognitive characteristics affected by changes in intensity, frequency, and stimulation duration were "heavy", "bold", "thick", and "light". The cognitive characteristics affected by two-variable combinations were "deep", "clear", "vibrating", "dense", "numb", "blunt", "shallow", "fuzzy", and "soft". Cognitive characteristics affected by either intensity, frequency, or stimulation duration were "fast", "pungent", "skinny", "thin", "slow", "ticklish", "tingling", "prickling", "tap", and "rugged". By observing the cognitive characteristics that can be induced by the combination of intensity, frequency, and stimulation duration, we confirmed that in addition to intensity and frequency, the stimulation duration is an important factor that influences the induction of various cognitive characteristics. The results presented in the study can be used to enhance the utility of haptic surfaces for extended reality applications.
