Vibrotactile Feedback for Improving Standing Balance [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 Maintaining balance standing upright is an active process that complements the stabilizing properties of muscle stiffness with feedback control driven by independent sensory channels: proprioceptive, visual, and vestibular.

Effects of vibrotactile feedback on yoga practice
Frontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2022 Participating in physical exercise using remote platforms is challenging for people with vision impairment due to their lack of vision. Thus, there is a need to provide nonvisual feedback to this population to improve the performance and safety of remote

Vibrotactile feedback as a countermeasure for spatial disorientation [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Spaceflight can make astronauts susceptible to spatial disorientation which is one of the leading causes of fatal aircraft accidents. In our experiment, blindfolded participants used a joystick to balance themselves while inside a multi-axis rotation ...

Vibrotactile Feedback for Brain-Computer Interface Operation [PDF]
Computational Intelligence and Neuroscience, 2007 To be correctly mastered, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) need an uninterrupted flow of feedback to the user. This feedback is usually delivered through the visual channel. Our aim was to explore the benefits of vibrotactile feedback during users' training and control of EEG-based BCI applications.

Repeated training with augmentative vibrotactile feedback increases object manipulation performance. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Most users of prosthetic hands must rely on visual feedback alone, which requires visual attention and cognitive resources. Providing haptic feedback of variables relevant to manipulation, such as contact force, may thus improve the usability of ...

Sensors, 2022 For individuals with altered sensory cues, vibrotactile feedback improves their balance control. However, should vibrotactile feedback be provided every time balance control is compromised, or only one-third of the time their balance is compromised?

Evaluation of a vibrotactile feedback device for spatial guidance [PDF]
2011 IEEE World Haptics Conference, 2011 In the present study, a vibrotactile feedback device for spatial guidance was evaluated in a tracking task paradigm. Participants (N = 18) had to translate and rotate virtual objects according to the vibrotactile vs. verbal cues without visual information. Both types of spatial guidance were evaluated using objective performance data (i.e.

VibroTac: An ergonomic and versatile usable vibrotactile feedback device [PDF]
19th International Symposium in Robot and Human Interactive Communication, 2010 This paper presents an ergonomic vibrotactile feedback device for the human arm. Due to the developed concept, the device can be used for a large spectrum of applications and a wide range of arm diameters since vibration segments are self-aligning to their intended positions.

Adding Vibrotactile Feedback to Large Interactive Surfaces [PDF]
, 2013 Interactive surfaces and multi-touch tables are increasingly available outside academic contexts, and are entering, for instance, work or educational contexts. A large variety of applications exists for a multitude of tasks. For interacting with these applications, existing interaction concepts are often directly mapped to the multi-touch surface ...
