Perceiving spatial information of a virtual object (e.g, direction, distance) is critical yet challenging for blind users seeking an immersive virtual reality (VR) experience. To facilitate VR accessibility for blind users, in this paper,…
In Human-Computer-Interaction, vibrotactile haptic feedback offers the advantage of being independent of any visual perception of the environment. Most importantly, the user's field of view is not obscured by user interface elements, and…
Playing back vibrotactile signals through actuators is commonly used to simulate tactile feelings of virtual textured surfaces. However, there is often a small mismatch between the simulated tactile feelings and intended tactile feelings by…
The paper presents results from a psychophysical study conducted to optimize vibrotactile stimuli delivered to subject finger tips in order to evoke the somatosensory responses to be utilized next in a haptic brain computer interface (hBCI)…
Haptic feedback provides an essential sensory stimulus crucial for interaction and analyzing three-dimensional spatio-temporal phenomena on surface visualizations. Given its ability to provide enhanced spatial perception and scene…
Surface visualizations are essential in analyzing three-dimensional spatiotemporal phenomena. Given its ability to provide enhanced spatial perception and scene maneuverability, virtual reality (VR) is an essential medium for surface…
Tactile perception is an increasingly popular gateway in human-machine interaction, yet universal design guidelines for tactile displays are still lacking, largely due to the absence of methods to measure sensibility across skin areas. In…
The paper presents results from a computational neuroscience study conducted to test vibrotactile stimuli delivered to subject fingertips and head areas in order to evoke the somatosensory brain responses utilized in a haptic brain computer…
Palm-based tactile displays have the potential to evolve from single motor interfaces (e.g., smartphones) to high-resolution tactile displays (e.g., back-of-device haptic interfaces) enabling richer multi-modal experiences with more…
In this research, we have developed a haptic situational awareness device that presents users with directional cues through continuous vibrotactile sensations. Using the device, we present user studies on the effectiveness of a…
We propose a haptic system that applies forces or skin deformation to the user's arm, rather than at the fingertips, for believable interaction with virtual objects as an alternative to complex thimble devices. Such a haptic system would be…
A common and effective form of social touch is stroking on the forearm. We seek to replicate this stroking sensation using haptic illusions. This work compares two methods that provide sequential discrete stimulation: sequential normal…
Communicating information to users is a crucial aspect of human-machine interaction. Vibrotactile feedback encodes information into spatiotemporal vibrations, enabling users to perceive tactile sensations. It offers advantages such as…
Wearable haptic interventions offer promising support for relaxation through slow, vibrotactile biofeedback. Despite their potential, current applications focus on stress-inducing procedures and fixed vibration patterns, with limited…
Haptic technology enhances interactive experiences by providing force and tactile feedback, improving user performance and immersion. However, despite advancements, creating tactile experiences still remains challenging due to device…
In this research, modeling and analysis of a beam-type touchscreen interface with multiple actuators is considered. As thin beams, a mechanical model of a touch screen system is developed with embedded electrostatic actuators at different…
Digital communication tools are limited to visual and auditory information and lack non-verbal information such as touch, which is important for communicating intentions and emotions. In order to solve this problem, the use of haptic…
Haptic feedback is critical in a broad range of human-machine/computer-interaction applications. However, the high cost and low portability/wearability of haptic devices remain unresolved issues, severely limiting the adoption of this…
Stereohaptic vibration is an innovative vibrotactile technology that extends the conventional tactile localization to the surrounding space, representing a virtual vibration source in the external environment. Previously, we have developed…
This study proposes a method to present pure low-frequency vibration sensations to the face that cannot be presented by small commercially available vibrators. The core innovation lies in utilizing an amplitude modulation technique with a…
