The sensory memories act as buffers for stimuli received through the senses. A sensory memory exists for each sensory channel: iconic memory for visual stimuli, echoic memory for aural stimuli and haptic memory for touch. Information is passed from sensory memory into short-term memory by attention, thereby filtering the stimuli to only those which are of interest at a given time. 4, record 1, English, - haptic%20memory

La mémoire sensorielle. Extrêmement brève, elle correspond pratiquement au temps de perception d'un stimulus par nos organes sensoriels. La mémoire sensorielle visuelle (on dit aussi iconique) a une persistance comprise entre 300 et 500 millisecondes. La mémoire sensorielle auditive (ou échoïque) n'est guère plus longue. À ces stimuli visuels et auditifs, peuvent s'ajouter des perceptions captées par les autres sens mais qui semblent jouer un rôle moins important. Ainsi en est-il de la mémoire sensorielle tactile (mémoire haptique). 1, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9moire%20haptique
