ABSTRACT
This paper examines the feasibility of language transmission through a haptic foot interface. The devices tested the placement, timing, and complexity of an array of vibrating electromagnets with the optimal device using an array of ten electromagnets placed under the arch of one foot. Moderate proficiency was reached after only an hour of training at which point the subjects were able to read a short e-mail through the device.

SA '15: SIGGRAPH Asia 2015 Haptic Media And Contents DesignIn this paper, the development of a multitouch haptic interface equipped with a movable touch screen is described. The proposed system enables a user to perceive the shape of two-dimensional virtual objects displayed on the screen and translate them ...
Haptic augmented reality interface using the real force response of an object
VRST '09: Proceedings of the 16th ACM Symposium on Virtual Reality Software and TechnologyThis paper presents the haptic interface system that consists of a base object and a haptic device. The desired force response is achieved by the combination of the real force response of the base object and the virtual force exerted by the haptic ...
