contents Tangible interactions involve multiple sensory cues, enabling the accurate perception of object properties, such as size. Research has shown, however, that if we decouple these cues (for example, by altering the visual cue), then the resulting discrepancies present new opportunities for interactions. Perception over time though, not only relies on momentary sensory cues, but also on a priori beliefs about the object, implying a continuing update cycle. This cycle is poorly understood and its impact on interaction remains unknown. We study (N=80) visuo-haptic perception of size over time and (a) reveal how perception drifts, (b) examine the effects of visual priming and dead-reckoning, and (c) present a model of visuo-haptic perception as a cyclical, self-adjusting system. Our work has a direct impact on illusory perception in VR, but also sheds light on how our visual and haptic systems cooperate and diverge.
