Haptic TechnologyHaptic Technology is the study of making technology such as virtual reality and

games seem more realistic (my definition of it), Examples of what HapticTechnology can do include:

y Shocks and Vibrations such as the rumble pack in the Nintendo 64controller.

y Control of temperature to create a more realistic environment, for exampleit would project the water as being cold.

The word Haptic comes from a Greek term meaning to touch.

Where is Haptic Tech used?Haptic Technology is can be used in a variety of things such as:

y Virtual Reality

y Video Games

y Robotics

y Medicine

y Art and Design

Virtual reality + Video GamesHaptic technology in this field is used to make things more realistic. For

example having a vibration mechanism which is triggered by largeexplosions in video games.

This technology allows for a useful training exercise for police/armyrecruits in high risk situations, for example a virtual reality simulationmay be programmed to test the armys response to a terrorist attack.

In order to experience virtual reality the user must wear a virtual realitydevice such as a virtual reality gloves, pads, helmets etc.


6/9

MedicineThe main advantage or effectHaptic Technology has had on Medicine is the

ability to train doctors/surgeons in virtual reality simulations.

For example less experienced surgeons may conduct virtual reality operations tominimize mistakes and train themselves to become better.

Robot-aided neurorehabilitation is a sensory-motor rehabilitation techniquebased on the use of robots and mechatronic devices

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rehabilitation_robotics

This is used to help patientswith motor disabilities increase movement.

For example

RoboticsHaptic Technologies in relation to Robotics are designed to make robots

more human like in the sense that it allows the robot to feel things suchas temperature, pain and sometimes emotions (no idea how that

works).

I found an article on a fan website that shows some a Japanese robot thathas the function to love, unfortunatelyI cant seem to find it again butIf you would like to have a look u can search for it here,

8/9

Art and DesignHaptic Technologies allow for a better way to manipulate things by touch.

For example touch screens can be used to rotate and re-sizeimages/photos.

Designers and modelers may use high-degree of freedom input deviceswhich give touch feedback relating to the "surface" they are sculptingor creating, allowing faster and more natural workflow than withtraditional methods.

Thats a good touch
