    A Feasibility Study of Communication with Cold Stimulations
    (2014) Budak, Erdem Inanc; Yildiz, Metin; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2554-6953; JJF-5070-2023
    Some part of available sytems which requires surgery (kohlear implant) for communication of completely deaf people, other parts just heal for one side hearing impaired people (soundbite technologies). Thus, there are lot of research of tactiles that are methods for communication through skin. However, existing communication systems's speed are too low, also devices couldn't move because, they working with electricity and have big massive. In this paper we have developed alternative communication method that the system uses cold stimulus for transfer characters through skin and also first tests have been done. We used peltiers for exist to cold stimuli and developed a computer based control system to transfer to peltiers via coding. We saw that subjects perceived two stimulus per second at one point of their forearms. But when we used more than one stimulus for coding characters, perception percent get low. Overall of results, we prove that communication with thermal way is alternative method that gives promise.
