Preferred term

texture perception: visual  

Definition

  • Our lives are filled with different sorts of texture, and we often make choices based purely on their visual properties. At a glance, we discriminate cotton from burlap from wool, and we can tell how a fabric will feel if we take it between our fingers. [Source: Encyclopedia of Perception; Texture Perception: Visual]
