A STUDY ON COGNITIVE RESPONSE TENDENCY AND DAMAGE THRESHOLD OF ABSORBING MEDIUM BY LASER-INDUCED INDIRECT STIMULATION

Laser-based research can be used in biology, medicine, engineering and many other industries. The use of pulsed laser can induce thermoelastic effect in a short time and give mechanical stimulation to the human body. When the elastic medium is attached to the human body and the laser is irradiated, the mechanical stimulus induced in the elastic medium can be transferred to the human body, which may cause tactile sensation. In this study, we investigated the effects of laser-induced indirect stimulation on cognitive response and damage to absorbing medium. Through the human body experiment, we studied the laser parameter condition that most subjects feel touch. In addition, thermal analysis simulations were performed to predict the condition of the laser pulse energy, the laser frequency and the temperature at the damage threshold of the absorption medium. The results of this study are expected to be useful for conducting non-contact tactile sensation using laser, and this technique can be widely used in laser biomedical stimulation, haptic technology, and other biological and medical fields.
