There are many different uses for haptics, such as training medical practitioners,
teleoperation, or navigation of virtual environments. This review focuses on haptic methods …

We introduce UltraHaptics, a system designed to provide multi-point haptic feedback above
an interactive surface. UltraHaptics employs focused ultrasound to project discrete points of …

We present an investigation of mechanically-actuated hand-held controllers that render the
shape of virtual objects through physical shape displacement, enabling users to feel 3D …

We present a new technology for enhancing touch interfaces with tactile feedback. The
proposed technology is based on the electrovibration principle, does not use any moving …

This paper presents a study of finger-based text entry for mobile devices with touchscreens.
Many devices are now coming to market that have no physical keyboards (the Apple iPhone …

Advances in haptic technologies can alter how real objects feel to our touch and create the
experience of haptic augmented reality (AR). However, the definition, use cases, and value …

Modern haptic interfaces are adept at conveying the large-scale shape of virtual objects, but
they often provide unrealistic or no feedback when it comes to the microscopic details of …

This book reviews the considerable body of research that has been done to evaluate the
touch skills of blind people. With an emphasis on cognitive and neuroscientific approaches …

We present a study investigating the use of vibrotactile feedback for touch-screen keyboards
on PDAs. Such key-boards are hard to use when mobile as keys are very small. We …

Physical buttons have the unique ability to provide low-attention and vision-free interactions
through their intuitive tactile clues. Unfortunately, the physicality of these interfaces makes …
