Abstract

This paper describes an experimental setup and results of user tests focusing on the perception of temporal characteristics of vibration of a mobile device. The experiment consisted of six vibration stimuli of different length. We asked the subjects to score the subjective perception level in a five point Lickert scale. The results suggest that the optimal duration of the control signal should be between 50 and 200 ms in this specific case. Longer durations were perceived as being irritating.
