Abstract
It is proposed that a hybrid sensory feedback system comprising a visual peripheral
component together with a haptic component corresponding to that of visual foveal information,
is equivalent to that of full visual sensory feedback. Such a system is constructed
and the ability of subjects to perceive objects using it is investigated by
observing and classifying their search strategy. Although the provision of a peripheral
component provides advantages over a purely haptic system, it is concluded that subjects
rely heavily on the haptic data, and the resulting hybrid system is not equivalent
to full vision.
