A Haptic Interface for Human-in-the-Loop Manipulation at the Nanoscale
This paper outlines major challenges that we are facing in interfacing a human user with objects in the nanoworld via a haptic interface. After a review of prior efforts at haptic...

Design of Array Stimulators for Synthetic Tactile Sensations
We have produced a 100-contactor array on the fingertip to provide passive stimulation, and a 25contactor array on the fingertip which allows active exploration in 2D. This paper ...

Selective Stimulation to Superficial Mechanoreceptors by Temporal Control of Suction Pressure
In this paper we propose a new set of primitives to realize a large-area covering realistic tactile display. They stimulate the skin surface with suction pressure (SPS method) as ...
