Mulsemedia—multiple sensorial media—makes possible the inclusion of layered sensory
stimulation and interaction through multiple sensory channels. The recent upsurge in …

As a central aspect of human physical and emotional experience, affect needs to be
incorporated into the discipline of haptic experience design, which is emerging alongside …

From simple vibrations to roles in complex multisensory systems, haptic technology is often
a critical, expected component of user experience–one face of the rapid progression …

With haptics now common in consumer devices, diversity in tactile perception and aesthetic
preferences confound haptic designers. End-user customization out of example sets is an …

This paper explores the combination of multiple concurrent modalities for conveying
emotional information in HCI: temperature, vibration and abstract visual displays. Each …

Chairs, wearables, and handhelds have become popular sites for spatial tactile display.
Visual animators, already expert in using time and space to portray motion, could readily …

Examples are a critical part of any design process, but supporting their use for a haptic
medium is nontrivial. Current libraries for vibrotactile (VT) effects provide neither insight into …

Access to haptic technology is on the rise, in smartphones, virtual reality gear, and open-
source education kits. However, engineers and interaction designers are often …

Effective haptic feedback in virtual reality (VR) is an essential element for creating
convincing immersive experiences. To design such feedback, state-of-the-art VR setups …

(57) ABSTRACT A system that generates haptic effects receives input media that includes
audio data, video data, or sensory data. The system automatically generates a haptic effect …
