PopTouch: A Submillimeter Thick Dynamically Reconfigured Haptic Interface with Pressable Buttons

Herbert Shea, Amir Firouzeh, Ayana Mizutani

The interactions with touchscreens rely heavily on vision: The virtual buttons and virtual sliders on a touchscreen provide no mechanical sense of the object they seek to represent. This work presents PopTouch: a 500 mu m thick flexible haptic display that ...

Reinforcement Learning and Hardware in the Loop for Localized Vibrotactile Feedback in Haptic Surfaces

Yves Perriard, Paolo Germano, Marc Michel Charles Favier, Xiaotao Ren, Camilo Hernandez Mejia

Touch is commonly used to mediate human-machine interactions, notably in the setting of Digital Musical Instruments (DMIs), where touch screens are prevalent. The lack of rich haptic feedback has an impact on the richness and quality of the interaction. Pi ...

Smart Portable Pen for Continuous Monitoring of Anaesthetics in Human Serum With Machine Learning

Sandro Carrara, Mandresy Ivan Ny Hanitra, Danilo Demarchi, Simone Aiassa

Continuous monitoring of anaesthetics infusion is demanded by anaesthesiologists to help in defining personalized dose, hence reducing risks and side effects. We propose the first piece of technology tailored explicitly to close the loop between anaesthesi ...
