Haptic Pulling Test

An international team of researchers has demonstrated that our brain need only perform a few lightning-fast statistical calculations to detect key properties of unknown objects. These results, published in the open access journal eLife, help to explain the mental mathematics that enable us to easily know what a novel object looks like simply by touching it, or the way an object feels from sight alone.

In this video, the study's senior author, Dr. Daniel Wolpert, and a member of his lab demonstrate the haptic pulling test used in the experiment.
