Summary
This paper reviews recent research on haptic exploration of multidimensional objects. We consider the nature of manual exploration in terms of the prevailing characteristics of various “exploratory procedures” (“EPs”), that is, stereotypical hand movement patterns; we also explore the impact of these characteristics on the sequence in which EPs are selected during a constrained object identification task
