SmartTouch [haptic interface]

IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 2004
The SmartTouch haptic augmented reality system prototype is composed of a thin electro-lactile display and optical sensors mounted on the skin that lets users touch the surface visual information of a contacting object. Thus, the sensor and display work in combination as a new type of a skin receptor.

Full freedom-of-motion actuators as advanced haptic interfaces.

Science
The sense of touch conveys critical environmental information, facilitating object recognition, manipulation, and social interaction, and can be engineered through haptic actuators that stimulate cutaneous receptors.

Magnetact: Magnetic-sheet-based Haptic Interfaces for Touch Devices

International Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2019
We describe a method for rapid prototyping of haptic interfaces for touch devices. A sheet-like touch interface is constructed from magnetic rubber sheets and conductive materials. The magnetic sheet is thin, and the capacitive sensor of the touch device

fMRI-Compatible Electromagnetic Haptic Interface

2005 IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology 27th Annual Conference, 2005
A new haptic interface device is suggested, which can be used for functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies. The basic component of this 1 DOF haptic device are two coils that produce a Lorentz force induced by the large static magnetic field of the MR scanner.

Three-Cable Haptic Interface

Volume 2: 30th Annual Mechanisms and Robotics Conference, Parts A and B, 2006
We present our three-cable haptic interface (TCHI) concept, plus modeling and simulation, hardware implementation, and initial experimental results. This device is based on a previous system developed by Italian researchers. Cable devices are limited since they cannot push on the user, but only apply positive tension.

Magnetact: magnetic-sheet-based haptic interfaces for touch devices

SIGGRAPH ASIA Emerging Technologies, 2018
This paper1 presents a rapid prototyping method of haptic interfaces for touch devices utilizing magnetic rubber sheets and conductive materials. When a magnetic sheet is thin enough, the capacitive sensor of the touch device can detect the user's finger

Haptic interfaces and devices

Sensor Review, 2004
Haptic interfaces enable person‐machine communication through touch, and most commonly, in response to user movements. We comment on a distinct property of haptic interfaces, that of providing for simultaneous information exchange between a user and a machine.

Visual Haptic Interface by Using 2-DOF Indirect Haptic Interface

2017
This paper describes development of a visual and haptic feedback interface by using a direct input touch panel display and 2 Degree-of-Freedom (DOF) indirect haptic interface. In this system, a user should wear no gear on his/her fingertip, and can touch the objects with it.

Remapped Physical-Virtual Interfaces with Bimanual Haptic Retargeting

IEEE Conference on Virtual Reality and 3D User Interfaces, 2019
This paper proposes a novel interface for virtual reality in which physical interface components are mapped to multiple virtual counterparts using haptic retargeting illusions.
