Multi-modal haptic research for future applications

A presentation material (PDF) for KAIST-UCLA MAE Faculty Workshop. The contents are:

• Haptics research
• Previous experience of TCL
• Current issues
• Application to mobile devices
• Discussion

The presentation contains many intriguing projects and ideas, among which I like Rubby, a squeezable haptic device and a patent application describing a haptic display using magnetic force (see p. 28 of the presentation file).

The presenter is Dr. D. S. Gwon  who is a professor at the Telerobotics and Control Laboratory (TCL), Department ofa  Mechanical Engineering, KAIST.
