abstract = "It is important to build somatotopic mapping of human hands at cortex level. The devices published in previous studies could not provide precise tactile stimuli output covering the whole hand. We introduce a novel tactile stimulation device including the actuating system and the control system. The device could generate multi-channel independent reciprocating stimuli actuated by bimorph based on the inverse piezoelectric effect. The actuating system consists of a position-adjusting part which could cover the whole hand and 23 independent stimulation dots array actuators which could improve the stability of the stimulus and the hand-conformability of equipment layout under high-intensity magnetic field. A prototype tactile stimulation system is designed to verify the output characteristics. The results show that the actuator unit of the device could generate stable 1.6mm displacement from 0-20 Hz under 200V driving voltage, which could be used in future somatotopic mapping of human tactile perception study.",
