Printing with Feeling: The Possibilities of Haptic Solutions in 3D Printing

Haptic solutions refer to the use of technology to provide tactile feedback or simulate the sense of touch. While most commonly associated with virtual reality and gaming, haptic solutions have a wide range of potential applications. One area where haptic solutions can be particularly useful is in 3D printing. 3D printing has revolutionized manufacturing, enabling Read more about Printing with Feeling: The Possibilities of Haptic Solutions in 3D Printing[…]

HAPTIC Holography seen as the Future of Touch in Metaverse

HAPTIC Holography npromises to bring virtual reality to life, but a new study reveals a surprising physical obstacle that will need to be overcome. A research team at UC Santa Barbara has discovered a new phenomenon that underlies emerging holographic haptic displays, and could lead to the creation of more compelling virtual reality experiences. The Read more about HAPTIC Holography seen as the Future of Touch in Metaverse[…]

Skin VR as new advanced wireless haptic interface system

Enhancing the virtual experience with the touch sensation has become a hot topic, but today’s haptic devices remain typically bulky and tangled with wires. A team led by the City University of Hong Kong (CityU) researchers recently developed an advanced wireless haptic interface system, called WeTac, worn on the hand, which has soft, ultrathin soft features, and Read more about Skin VR as new advanced wireless haptic interface system[…]

Sensing technology as inexpensive one to provide a helping hand during birth

Can inexpensive technologies provide a helping hand during birth? A new study in open-access journal Frontiers in Global Women’s Health has revealed a low-cost sensing glove that could do just that. The researchers created the device to assist healthcare staff in identifying fetal position and the force applied to the fetal head during labor, factors that can Read more about Sensing technology as inexpensive one to provide a helping hand during birth[…]

Subjective haptic vertical

Our ability to perceive what is truly vertical is crucial. Without it, we would struggle to perform simple tasks such as holding a cup of coffee without spilling it and maintaining appropriate body posture. Now, an international team of scientists from Japan, Canada and Germany have discovered a new situation from our everyday environment where Read more about Subjective haptic vertical[…]

Telehaptics increasing immersion tactile communication

Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) has developed a telehaptic device that remotely transmits tactile sensations in real time by attaching it to the fingertip like a sticker. It is expected to add a sense of immersion to the metaverse and real tactile experience with world-class performance and usability through ultra-miniaturization. Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute Read more about Telehaptics increasing immersion tactile communication[…]

Ultrasound system targets mouth to create virtual reality haptic effects

Lips are famously sensual but, together with the gums and tongue, they are also surprisingly sensitive, second only to the fingertips in nerve density. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have exploited this latter characteristic to devise a practical new way for people to receive tactile feedback in virtual worlds. Their system uses airborne ultrasound waves Read more about Ultrasound system targets mouth to create virtual reality haptic effects[…]
