Humans are aware of their world due to sensory input and a variety of information from all five senses is integrated into the brain. Research on the mechanisms underlying sensory integration has been extensive; however, few studies have investigated information arising from three or more sensory inputs. The purpose of the present research is to clarify the importance of sensory integration of information arising from the visual, auditory, and tactile senses. Three experiments were conducted to determine the integration of visual images, sounds, and vibrations from a haptic mouse, to investigate the matching of a combination of multi-sensory information represented by digital information. A greater impact was seen for visual information than for auditory or tactile information when the three types of information were presented simultaneously. A difference was also noted for presentation time for visual, auditory, and tactile information.
