Title:


    Untethered Force Feedback Interface That Uses Air Jets.

Presenter(s):



Description:


    Abstract

    We introduce an untethered interface that eliminates the annoyance of wires etc. by using air-jets to establish force feedback. Attendees experience interaction with a virtual object that responds to being “touched”. The sense of touch is provided by air-jets while visual clues are provided by a projection-based stereo display.
