Eichenlaub, J.A. (author), Huisman, G. (author), Xue, H. (author)Mind-wandering (MW) and fidgeting are both present as pervasive phenomena in everyday life and can positively impact ideation. Importantly, within the MW experience, MW can manifest in bodily behaviors such as physical fidgeting. Here, we use an extended mind framework to consider fidgeting as a case of extended MW, where (part of) a MW episode...conference paper 2023

El Ali, Abdallah (author), Stepanova, Ekaterina R. (author), Palande, Shalvi (author), Mader, Angelika (author), Cesar, Pablo (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)Sharing breathing signals has the capacity to provide insights into hidden experiences and enhance interpersonal communication. However, it remains unclear how the modality of breath signals (visual, haptic) is socially interpreted during collaborative tasks. In this mixed-methods study, we design and evaluate BreatheWithMe, a prototype for...conference paper 2023

(author), Adelsberger, Rolf (author), Pastore-Wapp, Manuela (author), Van Wegen, Erwin E H (author), Bohlhalter, Stephan (author), Nef, Tobias (author), Krack, Paul (author), Vanbellingen, Tim (author)We often interact with our environment through manual handling of objects and exploration of their properties. Object properties (OP), such as texture, stiffness, size, shape, temperature, weight, and orientation provide necessary information to successfully perform interactions. The human haptic perception system plays a key role in this. As...review 2023

However, these approaches struggle to explain MST interactions that occur outside of a laboratory setting. I briefly discuss these...journal article 2022

van Oosterhout, J. (author)The success of future fusion power plants as a sustainable energy source greatly depends on their uptime. This uptime relies on the plant's maintenance, which must be performed via tele-manipulation. Tele-manipulated maintenance is challenging, as exemplified by strictly selected and highly trained operators who still require more time to work...doctoral thesis 2018
