What is the function of corpuscle of touch?

The corpuscle of touch, also known as the Meissner's corpuscle, is a specialized sensory receptor located in the skin, particularly in areas sensitive to light touch, such as fingertips and palms. Its primary function is to detect and respond to light touch stimuli, providing the brain with information about texture, pressure, and vibration. This helps enhance the sense of touch and contributes to the ability to discern fine details in the environment.
