The pseudo-haptic feedback is a method to represent illusion of haptic sensation, induced by non-haptic stimuli, such as vision and acoustics. This is a prospective method that enables us to develop haptic display without using any actuators. That considered to be a benefit for composing a small, light weighted haptic display. However quantitative control of haptic representation is often difficult...
Continuing our previous work on developing comprehensive haptic feedback mechanisms for touchscreen based devices, this research elaborates how it is possible to incorporate the stick-slip phenomenon onto a mobile touchscreen to provide kinesthetic feedback for multimodal user interaction. Research has already proven that kinesthetic feedback is greatly beneficial in a wide range of activities, especially...
In this paper, we study a class of one degree-of-freedom mechanisms in order to design linear haptic interfaces. They allow to perform straight line motions with only revolute joints, thus limiting the friction that characterizes linear bearings. We particularly describe the characteristics of these systems and their good properties to design haptic displays: parallel architecture, very good linearity,...
This paper introduces a novel miniature piezoelectric ultrasonic motor and its characterization for the design and implementation of Braille tactile displays. The motor consists of a shaft, a mobile element or slider, and a piezoelectric ceramic transducer and achieves linear motion based on the principle of inertia displacement. Unlike existing mechanisms, this motor offers a compact, ultra-lightweight,...
In this study, we propose a novel grip-type haptic display for controlling a virtual (or robotic) hand (Fig. 1). This grip-type haptic display enables us to control a virtual hand and perceive haptic information based on a reactive force and a spatially distributed tactile feedback. Because this proposed display does not need any actuators to produce the reactive force, a simple haptic display is...
