Augmented reality (AR) applications have gained much research and industry attention.
Moreover, the mobile counterpart—mobile augmented reality (MAR) is one of the most …

The sense of touch is a fundamental aspect of our everyday interactions, especially those
that involve social relationships. Nothing now can (and hopefully will not have to) substitute …

“Virtual-Physical Perceptual Manipulations”(VPPMs) such as redirected walking and haptics
expand the user's capacity to interact with Virtual Reality (VR) beyond what would ordinarily …

We explore how to add haptics to walls and other heavy objects in virtual reality. When a
user tries to push such an object, our system actuates the user's shoulder, arm, and wrist …

Standard controllers for virtual reality (VR) lack sophisticated means to convey a realistic,
kinesthetic impression of size, resistance or inertia. We present the concept and …

We present a new handheld haptic device, Thor's Hammer, which uses propeller propulsion
to generate ungrounded, 3-DOF force feedback. Thor's Hammer has six motors and …

We introduce MetaArms, wearable anthropomorphic robotic arms and hands with six
degrees of freedom operated by the user's legs and feet. Our overall research goal is to re …

RoomShift is a room-scale dynamic haptic environment for virtual reality, using a small
swarm of robots that can move furniture. RoomShift consists of nine shape-changing robots …

We present VRHapticDrones, a system utilizing quadcopters as levitating haptic feedback
proxy. A touchable surface is attached to the side of the quadcopters to provide unintrusive …

We present a mobile system that enhances mixed reality experiences and games with force
feedback by means of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). The benefit of our approach is …
