Haptic Technology Handbook

Haptic technology refers to a technology that uses forces, vibrations, or motions to provide the user with an experience of touch. These technologies could be utilized to construct virtual objects in a computer simulation, to control virtual objects, and improve the remote control of machines and devices. Tactile sensors which measure the forces applied by the user on the interface are used in haptic devices. Steering wheels, game controllers and joysticks are examples of simple haptic devices. Haptic technology enables researchers to better understand the workings of the human sense of touch by permitting the construction of controlled haptic virtual objects. There are a wide range of applications of haptic technology including mobile devices and personal computers. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of haptic technology. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.
