Technion: Force patterns forming the basis of an haptic language
The Israel Institute of Technology (Technion) developed a methodology for the identification of re-occurring force-sensation patterns when a human is manipulating an invisible and remote object through a haptic telepresence system with the intention to recognise it. [read more...]
A novel approach for the experimental designs, and for the evaluation itself, will be the Ground Truth approach. The idea is let volunteers to perform the same task or experiment, in gradual different configurations from the completely real one to the completely virtual. The Universitat Politécnica de Catalunya is planning to conduct some of the studies in the three project scenarios using this strategy.

Only recently researchers have started to think about a sense of presence also in haptic systems. Collaborative and single user applications have been designed and evaluated, to understand the role of the haptic feedback in different situations. The concept of presence as ‘being there’ is clearly inadequate for use when dealing with responses to haptic feedback, whereas the approach that considers presence as `realistic´ response while operating in a virtual environment would be more appropriate.
