Some haptic devices provide force feedback via a small robotic arm.
Welcome to TOUCHaptics
Haptics is an exciting area of science and technology which centres on our sense of touch. Haptic devices allow people to interact with and explore virtual environments using their sense of touch. This opens up a whole range of possibilities from creating training tools for health professionals, to helping visually impaired people interact with computers.
The goal of TOUCHaptics is to bring haptic technology and research to a wider audience.
