DESIGNING HAPTIC INTERACTIONS USING AUDIO TOOLS

Studio-Workshop by Siyan Zhao, Zachary Schwemler, Adam Fritz and Ali Israr

During the hands-on studio workshop we explored how to create meaningful haptic content that engages different areas of the body using off-the-shelf hardware and open source software.

The studio gave us an understanding of apparent tactile illusions, a perception of illusory motion between two areas on the body, and we applied this knowledge towards generating our own haptic experiences. We created the design scenario for blind-deaf people.
