  2. Tactile illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactile_illusion

    Several tactile illusions are caused by dynamic stimulus sequences that press against the stationary skin surface. One of the best known passive tactile spatiotemporal illusions is the cutaneous rabbit illusion, in which a sequence of taps at two separated skin locations results in the perception that intervening skin regions were also tapped.

  3. Somatotopic arrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatotopic_arrangement

    Precentral gyrus sensory homunculus. Somatotopy [a] is the point-for-point correspondence of an area of the body to a specific point on the central nervous system. [1] Typically, the area of the body corresponds to a point on the primary somatosensory cortex (postcentral gyrus). This cortex is typically represented as a sensory homunculus which ...

  4. Sensory map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_map

    A sensory map is an area of the brain which responds to sensory stimulation, and are spatially organized according to some feature of the sensory stimulation. In some cases the sensory map is simply a topographic representation of a sensory surface such as the skin, cochlea, or retina. In other cases it represents other stimulus properties ...

  5. Motor coordination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_coordination

    There is simultaneous coordination between hand and eye movement as dictated by the multi-sensory integration of proprioceptive and visual information. [4] Additional levels of coordination are required depending on if the person intends to drink from the glass, give it to someone else, or simply put it on a table.

  6. Cortical homunculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortical_homunculus

    A 2-D model of cortical sensory homunculus. A cortical homunculus (from Latin homunculus 'little man, miniature human' [1] [2]) is a distorted representation of the human body, based on a neurological "map" of the areas and portions of the human brain dedicated to processing motor functions, and/ or sensory functions, for different parts of the body.

  7. Superficial fibular nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superficial_fibular_nerve

    The superficial fibular nerve (also known as superficial peroneal nerve) is a mixed (motor and sensory) nerve that provides motor innervation to the fibularis longus and fibularis brevis muscles, and sensory innervation to skin over the antero-lateral aspect of the leg along with the greater part of the dorsum of the foot (with the exception of the first web space, which is innervated by the ...

  8. Dermatome (anatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermatome_(anatomy)

    When the general visceral sensory fiber is stimulated, the central nervous system does not clearly discern whether the pain is coming from the body wall or from the viscera, so it perceives the pain as coming from somewhere on the body wall, e.g. left arm/hand pain, jaw pain. So the pain is "referred to" the related dermatomes of the same ...

  9. Sensory processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_processing

    It is important that the information of these different sensory modalities must be relatable. The sensory inputs themselves are in different electrical signals, and in different contexts. [6] Through sensory processing, the brain can relate all sensory inputs into a coherent percept, upon which our interaction with the environment is ultimately ...
