We evaluated the frictional force between two finger models that mimic properties of fingertips. Friction dynamics were drastically changed in the presence of fingerprints and variations in sliding speed and vertical force. For examp le, a periodic variation of the frictional force was observed under slow sliding conditions between finger models with fingerprint-like rough surfaces.
