Abstract(in English) A blood flow affects on the fingertip stiffness. How does tactile sensation improve depending upon the fingertip stiffness? The purpose of this study is to answer this simple question. While we have some experiments for examining the tactile sensation with making a compulsory change of the fingertip stiffness to disturb the blood flow, unexpectedly we could find an increasing trend of the tactile sensation in case that the blood flow is interrupted and the fingertip gets hard. We show experimental results and discuss the reason.
