With advances in mobile computing and virtual/augmented reality technologies,
communicating through touch using wearable haptic devices is poised to enrich and …

This paper's goal is to understand the haptic-visual congruency perception of skin-slip on
the fingertips given visual cues in Virtual Reality (VR). We developed SpinOcchio (Spin for …

We propose using a single slip tactile pixel on virtual reality controllers to produce
sensations of finger sliding and textures. When a user moves the controller on a virtual …

In room-scale virtual reality, providing continuous haptic feedback from touching grounded
objects, such as walls and handrails, has been challenging due to the user's walking range …

Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) are widely used on smartphones, tablets, and laptops.
While GUIs are convenient for sighted users, their accessibility for blind people, who use …

Skin-slip provides crucial cues about the interaction state and surface properties. Currently,
most skin-slip devices focus on two-dimensional tactile slip display and have limitations …

To reproduce the sensation of rubbing on a surface, we need to laterally stretch the skin of
the fingertip with two degrees of freedom (2DOF). Unfortunately, it is difficult to develop a …

Tracing sensation, which is associated with finger's tracing movement on an object, is
important to discriminate surface texture and frictional cues. Despite many attempts to render …

Tracing sensation plays an important role in discriminating friction and texture of objects. We
have been studying a method of presenting the tracing sensation by contacting the center of …

Haptic feedback plays a key role in robot teleoperation and enables operators to feel what
remote robots touch. To enhance the telepresence, this paper proposes a novel haptic …
