Human-Computer Interaction: An Empirical Research Perspective is the definitive guide to
empirical research in HCI. The book begins with foundational topics including an historical …

Tactation is the sensation perceived by the sense of touch, and is based on the skin's
receptors. Touch is a common medium used by the general population and the sensory …

In a meta-analysis of 43 studies, we examined the effects of multimodal feedback on user
performance, comparing visual-auditory and visual-tactile feedback to visual feedback …

This article is the first of a two-part series intended as an introduction to haptic interfaces.
Together they provide a general introduction to haptic interfaces, their construction, and …

Vibrotactile feedback can be effectively applied to motor (physical) learning in virtual
environments, as it can provide task-intrinsic and augmented feedback to users, assisting …

In this paper we report on a field study comparing a commercial pedestrian navigation
system to a tactile navigation system called Tactile Wayfinder. Similar to previous …

This paper presents a development history of a wearable, scalable vibrotactile stimulus
delivery system. This history has followed a path from desktop-based, fully wired systems …

Many studies have investigated the effect of vibrotactile cues on task performance, but a
wide range of cue and task types have made findings difficult to interpret without a …

The sense of touch is one of the most informative senses humans possess, and tactation is
the sensation perceived by the sense of touch. Tactation is resulted by the skin's receptors …

We present a decentralized connectivity-maintenance control framework for a
heterogeneous human–robot team. The algorithm is able to manage a team composed of an …
