"Active touch can be described as the control of the position and movement of tactile sensing systems to facilitate information gain. In other words, it is finding out about the world by reaching out and exploring--sensing by 'touching' as opposed to 'being touched'. In this Research Topic (with crossposting in both Behavioral Neuroscience and Neurorobotics) we welcomed articles from junior researchers on any aspect of active touch"-- Page 2.
