The perception of initial consonant voicing, final consonant voicing, pitch change, and word stress, was measured in six normal subjects, by speechreading alone, by tactile transmission of fundamental voice frequency alone, and by the two in combination. Two tactile displays were used: a single-channel (temporal) display and a 16-channel (spatial) display. By speechreading alone, all contrasts except initial consonant voicing were partially perceptible. By both tactile aids alone, all four contrasts were partially perceptable. The addition of tactile input to speechreading provided better performance than that obtained by speechreading alone. The multichannel display was found to be significantly more effective than the single-channel for perception of pitch rise/fall only.
对6名正常受试者进行了初始辅音浊音、末尾辅音浊音、音高变化和单词重音感知的测量，测量方式分别为单独唇读、单独通过触觉传递基频以及两者结合。使用了两种触觉显示器：单通道（时间）显示器和16通道（空间）显示器。单独唇读时，除初始辅音浊音外的所有对比都能部分感知到。单独使用两种触觉辅助工具时，所有四种对比都能部分感知到。在唇读中添加触觉输入比单独唇读的表现更好。仅在音高上升/下降的感知方面，发现多通道显示器比单通道显示器显著更有效。
