Journal ArticleDOI
Design and analysis of a recoil-type vibrotactile transducer.
Hsin-Yun Yao,Vincent Hayward +1 more
TL;DR: This article describes the design of a high-bandwidth, iron-less, recoil-based electromagnetic vibrotactile actuator and the method used to determine its transfer function, its scaling properties and its design constraints.
Journal ArticleDOI
A tactile enhancement instrument for minimally invasive surgery
TL;DR: An enhanced probe that could enhance the tactile sensations experienced while probing objects is developed that could measurably improve users' ability to detect small cuts in cartilage-like elastic surfaces.
An Experiment on Length Perception with a Virtual Rolling Stone
Hsin-Yun Yao,Vincent Hayward +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on the design and the results of an experiment where subjects held an apparatus that simulated the physics of an object rolling or sliding inside a tubular cavity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of walked-upon materials in auditory, kinesthetic, haptic, and audio-haptic conditions.
Bruno L. Giordano,Yon Visell,Hsin-Yun Yao,Vincent Hayward,Jeremy R. Cooperstock,Stephen McAdams +5 more
TL;DR: The ability to identify solid and aggregate walked-upon materials was investigated in auditory, haptic or audio-haptic conditions, and in a kinesthetic condition where tactile information was perturbed with a vibromechanical noise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perceived Vibration Strength in Mobile Devices: The Effect of Weight and Frequency
TL;DR: The results suggest the need for a systematic correction law for use by designers to specify the vibratory characteristics of a device as a function of its weight and of the desired operating frequency.
