An investigation into the use of tactons to present progress information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This paper presents an initial investigation into the use of Tactons, or tactile icons, to present progress information in desktop human-computer interfaces. Progress bars are very common in a wide range of interfaces but have problems. For example, they

A generic approach for augmenting tactile diagrams with spatial non-speech sounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Blind or visually impaired users typically access diagrams in the tactile medium. This paper describes TouchMelody, a system designed for augmenting such existing diagrams with 3D spatial auditory information to increase their usefulness, information ...

Tactile crescendos and sforzandos: applying musical techniques to tactile icon design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Tactile icons (Tactons) are structured vibrotactile messages which can be used for non visual information display. Information is encoded in Tactons by manipulating vibrotactile parameters. This research investigates the possibilities of applying musical

Displaying laterally moving tactile information [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
A movable dynamic tactile display has been developed presenting information to one or several fingertips resting on the display. As a main goal, the virtual line or plane of information to be displayed should be read using the same perceptual and cognitive resources as with real objects like paper braille or tactile graphics.

Evaluation of laparoscopic forceps jaw contact pressure and distribution using pressure sensitive film

open access: yesComputer Assisted Surgery, 2019
In this study, the authors used the Fujifilm Prescale Pressure Measuring System to measure the contact pressure and distribution at the jaws of laparoscopic grasping forceps. This data was then correlated with measured pressures at the forceps handles to
