Participatory Design for Awareness Features: Enhancing Interaction in Communities of Practice

Denis Gillet

In the framework of the European Integrated Project PALETTE, the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and the University of Patras are developing mediation services. These services aim at sustaining collaboration, supporting tacit and explicit k ...

Self in time: imagined self-location influences neural activity related to mental time travel

Olaf Blanke

Conscious awareness of the self as continuous through time is attributed to the human ability to remember the past and to predict the future, a cogitation that has been called "mental time travel" (MTT). MTT allows one to re-experience one's own past by su ...

The vestibular component in out-of-body experiences: a computational approach

Olaf Blanke

Neurological evidence suggests that disturbed vestibular processing may play a key role in triggering out-of-body experiences (OBEs). Little is known about the brain mechanisms during such pathological conditions, despite recent experimental evidence that ...

Manipulation of the participants' self-localization in a lying position

Michaël Mouthon

Healthy human beings are aware of their current position space and are able to distinguish their own body from that of other persons or objects. This capability arises from a coupling of sensory information with cognitive processes, and leads to a represen ...

Body ownership and embodiment: vestibular and multisensory mechanisms

Olaf Blanke, Christophe Lopez, Pär Halje

Body ownership and embodiment are two fundamental mechanisms of self-consciousness. The present article reviews neurological data about paroxysmal illusions during which body ownership and embodiment are affected differentially: autoscopic phenomena (out-o ...

Self-Sensing Methods from MEMs to Solar Aircraft Motors

Yves Perriard, Miroslav Markovic, Omar Scaglione

In order to control the speed and/or position of permanent magnet (PM) motors, they require position sensors. Basically, the auto-commutation needs 3 sensors for a 3-phase motor. In micro-motors, as there is no space for the sensors, self-sensing must be u ...

I and me: self-portraiture in brain damage

Olaf Blanke

Human bodily experience is characterized by the immediate feeling that our body is localized at a certain position in space and that the self is localized within these body borders (embodiment). Recent research from cognitive neuroscience and neurology sug ...

Video ergo sum: manipulating bodily self-consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Bigna Lenggenhager

Humans normally experience the conscious self as localized within their bodily borders. This spatial unity may break down in certain neurological conditions such as out-of-body experiences, leading to a striking disturbance of bodily self-consciousness. On ...

Self-sensing methods to drive micro-machines

Yves Perriard, Omar Scaglione, Jan Persson

Synchronous motors require sensors in order to control these devices in speed and/or position. Basically, the auto-commutation needs 3 sensors for a 3-phase type actuator. In micro-motors, as there is no more room to place the sensors, self-sensing approac ...

Local Oxidation of Titanium Using Dynamic-Mode Tuning-Fork Probe with Microfabricated Silicon Cantilever

Nico de Rooij, Terunobu Akiyama, Kaspar Suter

We present a unique probe that is based on a quartz tuning fork and a microfabricated cantilever. The probe is self-actuating and self-sensing. The cantilever can be tailored to the needs of specific applications, in this case to feature an electrically co ...
