A Novel Method to Generate Amplitude-Frequency Modulated Vibrotactile Stimulation

IEEE Transactions on Haptics, 2016
The natural interaction of humans with their environment involves the harmonious coordination of the body, for which multi-modal feedback including vision, proprioception, and tactile perception is essential. Most human-machine interfaces, however, rely on the visual feedback only, and this can lead to considerable cognitive burden.
