AbstractFueled by novel applications, interest in haptic perception is growing. This paper provides an overview of the state of the art of a number of important aspects of haptic perception. By means of touch we can not only perceive quite different material properties, such as roughness, compliance, friction, coldness and slipperiness, but we can also

Haptic glyphs (hlyphs) - structured haptic objects for haptic visualization [PDF]
Haptic devices can be used to visualize information. As well as representing tangible surfaces and forces to enhance virtual training simulators for instance, haptic devices have been used to realize tactile versions of diagrams and visualizations (such as line graphs and bar charts).

IN-HAPTICS: Interactive navigation using haptics [PDF]
We present a computational framework and experimental platform for robot navigation that allows for a user-friendly, graphical and haptic interaction with the human operator during the deployment process. The operator can see, feel, and manipulate the artificial potential field that drives the robot through an environment cluttered with obstacles.
