Abstract
This study explores on emotion and perception of teacups in subject teams of sighted people and blind people through the tactile sense. Two subject teams are arranged individually to touch the teacups one by one separated by curtains in a room. After observing and investigating, PAD emotion scale will be applied to evaluate emotion of participants. The researcher explores whether haptic sense effect is produced from participants’ tactual behavior with one set teacup. The finding is shown that: (1). The emotional effects of the blind subjects are more extreme than the sighted subjects in pleasure and arousal dimensions; (2). A teacup with oblique relief texture can make the unsighted subjects more pleasure emotions; (3). A straight line makes the blind subjects more uncertainty feelings and result in a negative emotional state; (4). Compare to the unsighted subjects, there is only a little difference between positive and negative emotion in the pleasure state of sighted subjects.
