We are investigating tactile feedback modalities designed to convey high frequency
vibratory information and small-scale object shape. Vibrotactile feedback systems transmit …

Haptic feedback devices for virtual reality and telerobotics applications reproduce physical
sensations to a human operator who interacts with a virtual or remote environment. Motors …

Human-system-interfaces for haptic display with emphasis on tactile information are
research fields of growing interest. Their application to system design in multi-modal …

We use haptic information to understand and interact with our surrounding environment in
daily life. Haptic devices can similarly augment our understanding of both our world and …

This thesis documents our research in high-fidelity, low-cost haptic interfaces and the
objective means by which they can be evaluated. Our preliminary work evaluated the ability …

Haptic feedback should integrate kinaesthetic and tactile feedback. However current haptic
displays do not satisfy the stringent performance and design requirements for integration in …

In this paper we discuss the control and spatiotemporal pattern specification for a high
density tactile display. The display consists of a configuration of 400 probes applying …

In this paper we present the design of a new tactile actuator array for the display of
distributed tactile dynamic shape information in telepresence and Virtual Environment (VE) …

We have developed a tactile display that produces vibratory stimulus to a fingertip in contact
with a vibrating tactor matrix. The display depicts tactile surface textures while the user is …

Many devices that transfer input from the visual environment to another sense have been
developed. The primary assistive technologies in current use are white canes, guide dogs …
