Virtual reality and emotions have become inseparable concepts over the past few years,
supported by the increasing number of studies relating them. However, these studies' …

The last decade has witnessed an increase in Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) research.
Myriads of application scenarios have been proposed and toolkits, as well as procedures …

We propose a new class of haptic devices that provide haptic sensations by delivering liquid-
stimulants to the user's skin; we call this chemical haptics. Upon absorbing these stimulants …

We present a novel intercorporeal experience–an intersubjective haptic voice. Through an
autobiographical design inquiry, based on singing techniques from the classical opera …

This study presents ErgoPulse, a system that integrates biomechanical simulation with
electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) to provide kinesthetic force feedback to the lower-body …

This paper introduces FaceHaptics, a novel haptic display based on a robot arm attached to
a head-mounted virtual reality display. It provides localized, multi-directional and movable …

We propose a novel concept for haptics in which one centralized on-body actuator renders
haptic effects on multiple body parts by stimulating the brain, ie, the source of the nervous …

We propose integrating an array of skin stretch modules with an head-mounted display
(HMD) to provide two-dimensional skin stretch feedback on the user's face. Skin stretch has …

While the real world provides humans with a huge variety of sensory stimuli, virtual worlds
most of all communicate their properties by visual and auditory feedback due to the design …

Cutscenes in Virtual Reality (VR) games enhance story telling by delivering output in the
form of visual, auditory, or haptic feedback (eg, using vibrating handheld controllers). Since …
