ABSTRACT
In this paper we present the design and evaluation of a two dimensional haptics display intended to be used for enhancing experience for movies and rides. The display, haptics surface, utilizes an array of vibrators contacting the skin at discrete locations and creates static and dynamic haptic sensations derived from scenes and situations. For this regard, a set of haptic morphs are introduced that can be used as building blocks to create new sensations on the skin. A novel haptic sensation, haptic blur, is also introduced that gives an illusion of continuous motion across the skin using discrete vibrating points. A pilot study investigating the reliability of haptic blur along a two dimensional skin surface is presented along with conceptual discussion on future haptic feelings rendered through the haptics surface.

Cross-Field Aerial Haptics: Rendering Haptic Feedback in Air with Light and Acoustic Fields
CHI '16: Proceedings of the 2016 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe present a new method of rendering aerial haptic images that uses femtosecond-laser light fields and ultrasonic acoustic fields. In conventional research, a single physical quantity has been used to render aerial haptic images. In contrast, our method ...
