  2. Haptic technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haptic_technology

    Haptic technology (also kinaesthetic communication or 3D touch) [1][2] is technology that can create an experience of touch by applying forces, vibration [broken anchor] s, or motions to the user. [3] These technologies can be used to create virtual objects in a computer simulation, to control virtual objects, and to enhance remote control of ...

  3. Haptic perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haptic_perception

    Haptic perception (Greek: haptόs "palpable", haptikόs "suitable for touch") means literally the ability "to grasp something", and is also known as stereognosis. Perception in this case is achieved through the active exploration of surfaces and objects by a moving subject, as opposed to passive contact by a static subject during tactile perception. [1]

  4. Haptic communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haptic_communication

    Haptic communication is nonverbal communication and interaction via the sense of touch. Touch can come in many different forms, some can promote physical and psychological well-being. A warm, loving touch can lead to positive outcomes while a violent touch can ultimately lead to a negative outcome. The sense of touch allows one to experience ...

  5. Augmented reality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_reality

    Augmented reality (AR) is an interactive experience that combines the real world and computer-generated 3D content. The content can span multiple sensory modalities, including visual, auditory, haptic, somatosensory and olfactory. [ 1 ] AR can be defined as a system that incorporates three basic features: a combination of real and virtual ...

  6. Force Touch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_Touch

    Haptic Touch is a software feature on the iPhone XR (but not the iPhone XS) and later iPhone models that serves to replace the functionality that 3D touch had. The touchscreen no longer has a pressure sensitive layer, so the software waits for a long-press to activate certain features, instead of a force press.

  7. Human interface device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_interface_device

    The host communicates with the device and receives input data from the device on actions performed by the human. Output data flows from the host to the device and then to the human. The most common example of a host is a PC but some cell phones and PDAs also can be hosts. The HID protocol makes implementation of devices very simple.

  8. Haptic memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haptic_memory

    Haptic memory is the form of sensory memory specific to touch stimuli. Haptic memory is used regularly when assessing the necessary forces for gripping and interacting with familiar objects. [1] It may also influence one's interactions with novel objects of an apparently similar size and density. Similar to visual iconic memory, traces of ...

  9. Tactile sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactile_sensor

    A PPS tactile sensor system (TactileHead []) designed to quantify the pressure distribution over the face and head. Useful to optimise the ergonomic design of headgear and eyewear. The SynTouch BioTac, [2] a multimodal tactile sensor modeled after the human fingertip. A tactile sensor is a device that measures information arising from physical ...
