 Researchers at Reichman University's Ivcher Institute for Brain, Cognition, and Technology have made a groundbreaking discovery that humans can detect water temperature through its sound. Using machine learning, the team analyzed how people perceive thermal properties via auditory cues, revealing an implicit skill acquired over time. This study demonstrates the potential of multisensory integration and could lead to advancements in understanding human perception and developing new sensory technologies.
