Unveiling the mechanisms that integrate sensory information from different modalities has become a main aim of psychological research in the last decade. In this project we are interested in the specific case of auditory-tactile interactions in the perception of vibrotactile events, an aspect that has not received as much attention as audio-visual or visuo-tactile interactions. The case of audio-tactile interactions deserves special
