    Abstract : Tactile perception is considered an important contributor to the overall consumer experience of a product. However, what physical properties that create the specifics of tactile perception, are still not completely understood. READ MORE

  2. 2. Getting a Feel for Tactile Space : Exploring Haptic Perception of Microtexture

    Author : Martin Arvidsson; Birgitta Berglund; Steven Hsiao; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Haptic; fine texture perception; multidimensional scaling; tactile; roughness; vibrations; spatial; Psychology; psykologi;

    Abstract : The present thesis is based on three studies that research different aspects of fine texture perception. The goal is to better understand the mechanisms involved in haptic perception of textures below 200 µm, also known as microtextures. READ MORE

  3. 3. Haptic perception, attention, and effects on performance in a driving context : use of a haptic rotary device in a menu selection task

    Author : Camilla Grane; Anita Fang Chen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknisk psykologi; Engineering Psychology;

    Abstract : In-vehicle driving interfaces have become increasingly complex with added secondary task functions designed to make driving enjoyable and comfortable. A single display solution in combination with a haptic rotary device has the potential to reduce the clutter of buttons. With well-designed haptic information (i.e. READ MORE

  4. 4. A methodology for situated and effective design of haptic devices

    Author : Xuan Sun; Kjell Andersson; Ulf Sellgren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Design optimization; haptic devices; metamodel; multi-criteria; situatedness; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : The realism of virtual surgery through a surgical simulator depends largely on the precision and reliability of the haptic device. The quality of perception depends on the design of the haptic device, which presents a complex design task due to the multi-criteria and conflicting character of the functional and performance requirements.

  5. 5. Direct Volume Haptics for Visualization

    Author : Karljohan Lundin Palmerius; Anders Ynnerman; Matthew Cooper; David Ebert; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Haptic Visualization; Volumetric Data; Haptic Primitives; Shape Representations; Time-varying Data; Computer engineering; Datorteknik;

    Abstract : Visualization is the process of making something perceptible to the mind or imagination. The techniques for producing visual imagery of volumetric data have advanced immensely during the last decades to a point where each produced image can include an overwhelming amount of information.
