Audio
Haptics
Sound and reaction forces generated from a physical model
of a virtual object.
Innovation
Co-located acoustic and haptic feedback.
Vision
Potential applications of audio haptics include:
- Virtual instruments. With audio haptics, users can change the attributes of
percussion instruments and create new sounds.
- Inspection simulator. Users can acquire information about the physical
characteristics of an object (density distribution, for
example) by hitting it and analyzing the sound. With audio
haptics technology, engineers could build simulators for
this type of inspection.
