Enhancing virtual immersion through tactile feedback

Published:05 October 2014Publication History

ABSTRACT

The lack of tangibility while interacting with virtual objects can be compensated by adding haptic and/or tactile devices or actuators to enhance the user experience. In this demonstration, we present two scenarios that consist of perceiving moving objects on the human body (insects) and feeling physical sensations of virtual thermal objects.
