Soft pneumatic displays have shown to provide compelling soft haptic feedback. However,
they have rarely been tested in Virtual Reality applications, while we are interested in their …

This paper presents a novel finger-worn actuator capable of generating three distinctive
haptic effects: static pressure, high-frequency vibration, and an impact. Our new design …

Numerous studies have indicated that the use of a closed-loop haptic feedback system,
which offers various mechano-tactile stimuli patterns with different actuation methods, can …

A complete set of diverse haptic feedbacks is essential for a highly realistic and immersive
virtual environment. In this sense, a multi-mode haptic interface that simultaneously …

Braille displays are a class of human–computer interaction electromechanical devices that
display dynamic braille through an array of actuators. However, existing actuators for braille …

In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a haptic device with liquid-pouch motors that can
simulate a handshake. Because handshakes involve contact of the palms or soft skin …

Tactile rendering attempts to replicate touch stimuli with the aid of haptic devices so that the
perception of a material can be stored and transmitted to a remote user. Haptic devices have …

This paper presents the design, implementation, and prototype of a low-cost Braille
embossing mechanism. The proposal is a printer head integrating three hammers that, upon …

Most of the information a user obtains through a computer is visual and/or auditory.
Providing synchronized haptic information in addition to visual and/or auditory information …

Active artificial prosthetic hands have gained much attention recently among upper limb
amputees as those prosthetic hands can fulfill most requirements of the missing hand …
