The requirement to share information and communicate effectively via radio or other equipment during natural disasters, fires, crimes or catastrophes has only increased for police officers, ...

Haptic interfaces are advanced systems that enable users to experience tactile feedback through simulated forces and motion, thereby bridging the gap between virtual environments and physical ...

Haptic controls: No amount of photos can make them look good. Try it out, though: It’s a little bit like magic. If you look closely, you can see the Leap Motion that’s being used for the hand tracking ...

Haptic interfaces integrated with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are increasingly central to exploring sensorimotor processes and brain function under realistic conditions. These devices ...

Haptic interfaces allow humans to touch what may well be untouchable. From laparoscopic surgery to radioactive waste removal to the simple act of putting a mobile on vibrate, robotics are getting ...

Haptic interfaces have been readily adopted because of their intuitive ease of use and convenience. Obvious examples are the screens for your mobile phone or other computing devices where keyboards ...

Haptics—technology that recreates the sense of touch—has long been a missing piece in digital interaction. Screens can show images, speakers ...

Now that we have decent VR goggles, the world is more desperate than ever for a decent haptic interface for interacting with computers. We might be seeing a new leap forward in this wild new haptic ...

Cirrus Logic Inc. is bringing its expertise in consumer and smartphone haptics to automotive applications with its new family of closed-loop haptic drivers. The CS40L51, CS40L52, and CS40L53 devices ...

There’s just something about a satisfying “click” that our world of touchscreens misses out on; the only thing that might be better than a good solid “click” when you hit a button is if device could ...

A magnetic levitation haptic interface invented by Ralph Hollis, a professor in Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute, is the recipient of a 2010 R&D 100 Award, presented by R&D Magazine to ...
