A surface texture is perceived through both the sound and vibrations produced while being
explored by our fingers. Because of their common origin, both modalities have a strong …

Realistic display of tactile textures on touch screens is a big step forward for haptic
technology to reach a wide range of consumers utilizing electronic devices on a daily basis …

Moving a slider to set the music volume or control the air conditioning is a familiar task that
requires little attention. However, adjusting a virtual slider on a featureless touchscreen is …

Friction modulation technology enables the creation of textural effects on flat haptic displays.
However, an intuitive and manageably small design space for construction of such haptic …

Auditory roughness resulting from fast temporal beatings is often studied by summing two
pure tones with close frequencies. Interestingly, the tactile counterpart of auditory roughness …

An electrostatic friction modulation device based on a tablet computer was used to present
pattern stimuli to the fingertip for two tasks: detecting patches of friction and matching a …

An ever-increasing number of human-machine interfaces have embraced touchscreens as
their central component, such as in smartphones, laptops, terminals, etc. Their success has …

This paper describes the creation and testing of a prototype device for rendering texture,
using a touch-sensitive surface consisting of a linear soft potentiometer (LSP) attached to a …

In haptic interaction technology, texture haptic display is an important part. In order to
perceive color image texture better, the haptic display methods of color texture based on …

Somatosensory events generated by our own actions are perceived as less intense than
comparable events of external origin, a phenomenon known as tactile attenuation [1] …
