Most haptic devices only deliver feedback as simple vibrations. New device applies dynamic forces in any direction to simulate a more realistic sense of touch. Small, lightweight device can enhance ...

Northwestern's wireless device mimics real touch by replicating vibrations, pressure, stretching, and more—delivering a ...

"The FOM actuator is the first small, compact haptic device that can poke or stretch skin, operate slow or fast, and be used in arrays. As a result, it can be used to produce a remarkable range of ...

Northwestern says the new device can simulate a much more realistic sense of touch. It could even let deaf people "feel" ...

Extended reality makes it possible to artificially modify human sensations. For example, researchers have succeeded in using ...

When it comes to haptic feedback, most technologies are limited to simple vibrations. But our skin is loaded with tiny ...

How can haptic feedback, which uses vibrations to simulate real touch sensations, be improved to provide more accurate data to users? This is what a recent | Technology ...

Today's virtual reality games and content can be pretty immersive, but they largely miss the mark when it comes to haptic ...
