Product Overview

The TouchFeel-Box makes it possible – within the scope of quality assurance of materials – to check the tactile properties of the surface.

From an objective point of view, this surface must not only meet certain safety standards, but must also subjectively evoke a special haptic perception.

The purchase decision of a product depends not only on the technical objective aspects, but also on the subjective perception.

If a surface does not trigger a positive or expected sensation while touching, this leads to irritation. This deviation is also called cognitive dissonance.

With the help of the TouchFeel-Box, the touch feeling can be broken down into different impressions and assigned to haptic descriptors. The relevance of the haptic descriptors has been determined by numerous studies.
