We present a technique for providing remote tactile feedback to the thumb and index finger via a wristband device. This enables haptics for touch and pinch interactions in mixed reality (MR) while keeping the hand entirely free. We achieve…
Developing kinesthetic haptic devices with advanced haptic rendering capabilities is challenging due to the limitations on driving mechanisms. In this study, we introduce a novel soft electrohydraulic actuator and develop a kinesthetic…
Interactive computational environments can help students explore algorithmic concepts through collaborative hands-on experimentation. However, static and instructor controlled demos in lectures limit engagement. Even when interactive…
Smartphone-based measurement platforms can collect data on human sensory function in an accessible manner. We developed a smartphone app that measures vibration perception thresholds by commanding vibrations with varying amplitudes and…
Shared autonomy teleoperation can guarantee safety, but does so by reducing the human operator's control authority, which can lead to reduced levels of human-robot agreement and user satisfaction. This paper presents a novel haptic shared…
This study introduces a novel haptic device for enhancing dexterous manipulation in virtual reality. By stimulating mechanoreceptors on both sides of the fingernail, our lightweight system simulates tangential force sensations. We employ…
This paper addresses the question of how and with what consequences anonymity is used as a creative element in experiments dealing with alternative forms of knowledge production. More specifically, the focus is on a particular current in…
With the increasing use of assistive robots in rehabilitation and assisted mobility of human patients, there has been a need for a deeper understanding of human-robot interactions particularly through simulations, allowing an understanding…
Distributed tactile sensing remains difficult to scale over large areas: dense sensor arrays increase wiring, cost, and fragility, while many alternatives provide limited coverage or miss fast interaction dynamics. We present Sound of…
High resolution tactile sensing has great potential in autonomous mobile robotics, particularly for legged robots. One particular area where it has significant promise is the traversal of challenging, varied terrain. Depending on whether an…
