A Review of Smart Materials in Tactile Actuators for Information Delivery

open access: yes, 2017
As the largest organ in the human body, the skin provides the important sensory channel for humans to receive external stimulations based on touch. By the information perceived through touch, people can feel and guess the properties of objects, like ...

Low Cost MR Compatible Haptic Stimulation with Application to fMRI Neurofeedback

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
The most common feedback displays in the fMRI environment are visual, e.g., in which participants try to increase or decrease the level of a thermometer. However, haptic feedback is increasingly valued in computer interaction tasks, particularly for real-

Structure‐Dependent Resonant Frequency Engineering of Textile Tactile Sensors Toward Rapid and Precise Braille Recognition Surpassing Human Sensation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 13, 3 March 2026.
A resonant frequency engineering strategy is proposed to modulate the sensibility of piezoresistive textile‐based tactile sensor. It achieves simultaneous detection of static pressure and dynamic vibrations across an unprecedented bandwidth of 5–600 Hz, surpassing human sensation, therefore enables rapid and precise braille recognition.

BodySpace: inferring body pose for natural control of a music player [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We describe the BodySpace system, which uses inertial sensing and pattern recognition to allow the gestural control of a music player by placing the device at different parts of the body.

Vibrational Feedback for a Teleoperated Continuum Robot with Non-contact Endoscope Localization

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering
Limited or absent haptic feedback is reported as a factor hindering the continued adoption of surgical robots. This article presents a proof of concept for vibrotactile feedback integrated into a continuum robot to explore whether such feedback improves ...

Understanding indoor orientation through wearable vibrotactile feedback

open access: yesProceedings of the 18th International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Multimedia, 2019
The main goal of this work is to better understand how vibrotactile feedback obtained through wearable actuators can support indoor orientation in unfamiliar buildings. We designed different wearable vibrotactile prototypes (two wristbands, a flexible/rigid glove, one wristband, a cap and two-bands), and we analysed them in a preliminary test with 7 ...
