Exploring Haptic Feedback in Exergames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Exergames combine entertainment and exercise in an effort to encourage people to be more physically active. Although exergames require active input, interactions are less physical than those experienced in real-world exercise. Interactions can feel artificial, limiting the captivating experience exergames aim to provide.

Haptic granular synthesis: targeting, visualisation and texturing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This work introduces the idea of haptic rendering using granular synthesis - an established technique for synthesising audio. It describes the technique along with potential application areas, and initial results from an implementation on a PHANToM force

Comparison of vibrotactile and joint-torque feedback in a myoelectric upper-limb prosthesis

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background Despite the technological advancements in myoelectric prostheses, body-powered prostheses remain a popular choice for amputees, in part due to the natural sensory advantage they provide.

Passive and active kinesthetic perception just noticeable difference for natural frequency of virtual dynamic systems

open access: yes, 2007
This paper investigates the just-noticeable-difference (JND) for natural frequency of virtual second order dynamic systems. Using a one degree-of-freedom haptic device, visual and/or haptic sensory feedback were presented during interactions with the ...

Evaluating user response to in-car haptic feedback touchscreens using the Lane Change Test [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Touchscreen interfaces are widely used in modern technology, from mobile devices to in-car infotainment systems. However, touchscreens impose significant visual workload demands on the user which have safety implications for use in cars. Previous studies

Understanding the Utility of State-Based Haptic Feedback in Tendon-Driven Anthropomorphic Prostheses

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Haptic feedback has demonstrated utility in traditional prosthetic devices, however, it is unclear to what extent haptic feedback improves functionality in an anthropomorphic agonist/antagonist tendon-actuated design.
