Palpation is defined in the Oxford English dictionary as "[to] examine (a part of the body) by touch, especially for medical purposes".
My submitted paper involved a bio-inspired approach to electromechanical device design, where the finger motions of surgeons were studied during exploratory scenarios in order to set a number of functional objectives for the device. The other design requirements were set by the proposed application of minimally invasive surgery.
