Experimental Results
Surface with a Bump
In this experiment, a fingertip is moving from left to right over a bump located approximately in the region bordered by green dotted lines in Figure 1(b). Figures 2 and 3 show a clear pattern of compression on the left of the bump and stretch on the right of the bump.
