touch perception
Touch perception, also known as tactile perception, is the brain's ability to understand and interpret information transmitted through the skin's sensory receptors. These receptors respond to various stimuli such as temperature, pressure, vibration, and texture, allowing a person to feel and respond to their physical environment. Touch perception is a crucial aspect of the human sensory system and plays a significant role in daily activities and interaction with surroundings.
