Data underlying the publication entitled "Efficient tactile encoding of object slippage"

The dataset contains the processed supporting data for the publication entitled "Efficient tactile encoding of object slippage" submitted in Scientific Reports. In this paper, we highlight the dominant patterns of deformation during a finger slippage, and we show that they are sufficient to estimate the distance between the frictional force and the frictional strength of the contact, defined by the safety margin.<br>The raw data include images of the participants' fingerprints, which are sensitive, so they will be available only upon request.To know more about each file, please read the README file.
