Phantom touch, another sense of humans

The world that we capture through the senses could change, according to Arthur Pazinski, the first author of the study stated that in virtual reality people sometimes have the sensation of touching things, although in reality they only come across virtual objects, the researcher stated.

And what these scientists have done was that for their experiment they took 36 people to whom they placed virtual reality glasses, first the people were accustomed to the virtual reality environment by moving and touching virtual objects and then they were assigned the task of touching your hand with a virtual stick in a virtual environment according to Arthur, we were able to show that the majority of subjects described the phantom touch illusion as an electrifying tingling or tickling sensation as if the wind was blowing through their hand, the researcher said.

And the body sensation, which we feel every day and through which we can move and understand, what our body is like, our hands, how to touch objects, that sensation arises from a complex combination of different sensory perceptions, the scientists of this Research observed that the phantom touch illusion also occurred when subjects touched parts of their body that were not visible in virtual reality.

According to researcher Christian Klaes, this discovery of the phantom touch illusion opens new possibilities for future research on human perception and could also have applications in the fields of reality and medicine, and could even help deepen our understanding of diseases and disorders. neurological disorders that affect the perception of one's own body, declared the researcher.

We could develop this New Sense to take a full leap into a virtual reality or perhaps to immerse ourselves in our mind.
