Reactive Grip™ Tactile Feedback for Precision Manipulation
More info on the Tactical Haptics Facebook, Twitter, & U. of Utah research pages below.
We have adapted our lab’s tactile feedback technology to be integrated into a device to be held in a precision grasp that can provide tactile feedback to a user’s fingertips. Our technology can be used to convey motion and force information. It does this through the motion of sliding contactors that are built into the device. Translational motions and forces can be portrayed by moving the contactors in unison in the corr
