Web-based haptic applications for blind people to create virtual graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Haptic technology has great potentials in many applications. This paper introduces our work on delivery haptic information via the Web. A multimodal tool has been developed to allow blind people to create virtual graphs independently.

Haptic display for virtual reality: progress and challenges

open access: yesVirtual Reality & Intelligent Hardware, 2019
Immersion, interaction, and imagination are three features of virtual reality (VR). Existing VR systems possess fairly realistic visual and auditory feedbacks, and however, are poor with haptic feedback, by means of which human can perceive the physical ...

Communicating with feeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Communication between users in shared editors takes place in a deprived environment - distributed users find it difficult to communicate. While many solutions to the problems this causes have been suggested this paper presents a novel one.

Haptic Contagion

open access: yesFilozofski vestnik, 2023
During the pandemic there were many ways of handling the contagious SARS-CoV-2 virus, most of them in haptic terms, or in terms of touch: masks, hand disinfection, social distancing, quarantines, (self)isolations. Touch thus became not only the privileged object of the new bio-politics, striving to preserve life at all costs, but also what was lost ...

‘Anthropomorphic drones’ and colonized bodies: William Gibson’s the peripheral [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
William Gibson tends to write in trilogies, as his first nine novels show. These series – the Sprawl, the Bridge, and the Blue Ant trilogies – are set in three different time periods and are populated by characters who reappear from one book to the next.

Multimodal virtual reality versus printed medium in visualization for blind people [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In this paper, we describe a study comparing the strengths of a multimodal Virtual Reality (VR) interface against traditional tactile diagrams in conveying information to visually impaired and blind people. The multimodal VR interface consists of a force

Haptic Magnetism [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Haptics
New interactions are often developed by mimicking the real world. Therefore, many researchers in haptics have focused on creating a realistic experience of contact between users and objects. However, dispensing with mimicry may allow us to develop novel haptic interactions.

Discrete port-Hamiltonian systems: mixed interconnections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Either from a control theoretic viewpoint or from an analysis viewpoint it is necessary to convert smooth systems to discrete systems, which can then be implemented on computers for numerical simulations.

Putting the feel in ’look and feel‘ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Haptic devices are now commercially available and thus touch has become a potentially realistic solution to a variety of interaction design challenges.
