This article reviews the technology behind creating artificial touch sensations and the
relevant aspects of human touch. We focus on the design and control of haptic devices and …

This paper reviews the technology and applications of vibrotactile display, an effective
information transfer modality for the emerging area of haptic media. Our emphasis is on …

Today's virtual reality (VR) systems allow users to explore immersive new worlds and
experiences through sight. Unfortunately, most VR systems lack haptic feedback, and even …

This paper introduces Tacttoo, a feel-through interface for electro-tactile output on the user's
skin. Integrated in a temporary tattoo with a thin and conformal form factor, it can be applied …

AIREAL is a novel haptic technology that delivers effective and expressive tactile sensations
in free air, without requiring the user to wear a physical device. Combined with interactive …

Immersive experiences seek to engage the full sensory system in ways that words, pictures,
or touch alone cannot. With respect to the haptic system, however, physical feedback has …

REVEL is an augmented reality (AR) tactile technology that allows for change to the tactile
feeling of real objects by augmenting them with virtual tactile textures using a device worn by …

We present a tactile-rendering algorithm for simulating 3D geometric features, such as
bumps, on touch screen surfaces. This is achieved by modulating friction forces between the …

Motivated by the idea that slow breathing practices could transform the automobile commute
from a depleting, mindless activity into a calming, mindful experience, we introduce the first …

Integration of soft haptic devices into garments can improve their usability and wearability for
daily computing interactions. In this paper, we introduce PneuSleeve, a fabric-based …
