Zhang et al.demonstrate the device in two VR applications involving in-hand haptic feedback and haptic foot feedback. The authors present their approach as a first-person, human-triggered and active method that allows users to engage in mechanical interactions with different perceptions of stiffness. This approach is in contrast to previous haptics research that was machine-triggered and passive, resulting in sensations that differed from real-world experiences. The authors’ haptic device thus introduces a new interactive method for VR, enhancing users’ sense of immersion. Samsung Gear VR and Oculus Rift maintain some of the most popular and expensive VR headsets. Each person took… Read More
