Development of a wearable haptic game interface

This paper outlines the development and evaluation of a wearable haptic game interface. The device differs from many traditional haptic feedback implementation in that it combines vibrotactile feedback with gesture based input, thus becoming a two way conduit between the user and the virtual environment. The device is intended to challenge what is considered an “interface” and sets out to purpo...

A wearable haptic game controller

This paper outlines the development of a wearable game controller incorporating vibrotacticle haptic feedback that provides a low cost, versatile and intuitive interface for controlling digital games. The device differs from many traditional haptic feedback implementation in that it combines vibrotactile based haptic feedback with gesture based input, thus becoming a two way conduit between the...

The Sightlence Game: Designing a Haptic Computer Game Interface

The haptic modality is currently underutilized and poorly understood as a design material in game design. There are few computer games to draw on for inspiration during design explorations. This design case study explores how to use the haptic modality as a design material for computer game interfaces that requires neither graphics nor audio. The idea behind the case study is that a better unde...

Wearable haptic-based multi-modal interaction for tangible interface

Innovative developments of information and digital technologies open a new paradigm of lifestyle. Cyber space created by a computer is being developed as a complementary concept to the real world and its practical usage increases drastically. The cyber space technology enlarges the area of human-real world interaction to human-cyber-real world interaction. Tangible interface can be understood a...
