Designing effective, wearable multisensory haptic devices requires a deep understanding of human touch perception, and the research team identified several key challenges in the field today.

In three experiments, the researchers examined whether people could accurately guess the number of spheres in a box by shaking the box for up to five seconds using haptic perception (the use of ...

It’s also known as haptic perception. Normally, your brain stores information about items you see and use and you draw on this stored memory to recognize items with other senses, such as touch.

Different technologies provide different levels of immersion: • VR provides partial intellectual and visual immersion but lacks haptic perception and immersion. Users perceive the VR environment ...

In this work we propose to utilize haptic perception paired with a qualitative effect representation to reason about the task performance of robotic wiping motions despite poor visual information. In ...

Enter OneCourt, and their haptic sports display technology ... Devices like these can open up a whole new world of perception to those that otherwise might find sports difficult or frustrating ...

But there’s one big upgrade that can take your laptop trackpad experience to the next level — a haptic trackpad. Haptic trackpads are still tough to find on modern PC laptops, but they’re ...

But for those with blindness and low vision, it’s not quite so convenient. Haptic has been building a non-visual, non-verbal way of telling people where to go, and they’ve decided it’s time ...

The vibrations were all the same. Eventually, they worked with engineers at the electronic components company Avnet to develop a light haptic suit with a total of 24 actuators, or vibrating plates.
