Combining force and thermal feedback in a wrist-worn robot.

Wearable hapticsVRPrototyping

Research overview

This work focuses on a wrist-worn articulated robot that combines encountered force and thermal haptics for VR. It is part of the broader investigation of wearable interfaces for embodied virtual experiences.

An articulated interface at the wrist

How can wearable haptic interfaces make a remote world tangible?

My role in this research program

Built thermal haptic devices within the SCIGC research program on physically tangible virtual experiences.

Connection to my broader work

Building physical feedback systems led me to ask how much stimulation is needed for a convincing virtual experience.
