Q&A for Demonstration of ElaStick: A Variable Stiffness Display for Rendering Handheld Flexible Object
Author(s)/Presenter(s):
Abstract:
We present ElaStick, a variable stiffness VR controller that allows experiencing the illusion of wielding objects of various flexibility. In our demo session, participants can experience firsthand (1) the stiffness of swords with different length and shape, and (2) changing flexibility due to interaction in VR.
Q&A for Balloon Interface for Midair Haptic Interaction
Author(s)/Presenter(s):
Abstract:
In this paper, we propose a balloon interface, a mid-air physical prop that affords direct single-handed manipulation in a safe manner. The system uses a spherical helium-filled balloon controlled by ultrasound phased array transducers as a physical prop that is safe to collide at high speed.
Q&A for HaptoMapping: Visuo-Haptic AR System using Projection-based Control of Wearable Haptic Devices
Author(s)/Presenter(s):
Abstract:
We propose “HaptoMapping,” a novel projection-based AR system, that can present consistent visuo-haptic sensations on a non-planar physical surface without installing any visual displays to users and by keeping the quality of visual information. we introduce three application scenarios in daily scenes.
Q&A for HexTouch: A Wearable Haptic Robot for Complementary Interactions to Companion Agents in Virtual Reality
Author(s)/Presenter(s):
Abstract:
HexTouch is a forearm-mounted robot that performs complementary touches in relation to the behaviors of a companion agent in VR. The robot consists of a series of tactors driven by servo motors that render specific tactile patterns to communicate emotions (fear, happiness, disgust, anger, and sympathy) and other notification cues.
Q&A for KABUTO: Inducing Upper-Body Interactions using a Head Mounted Haptic Display with Flywheels
Author(s)/Presenter(s):
Abstract:
we propose KABUTO, a haptic display add-on for HMDs designed to induce whole-body interaction by the application of kinesthetic feedback. KABUTO can provide impact and resistance using flywheels and brake in response to various head movements as extensive head movements lead to dynamic movements throughout the whole body.
