Northwestern's wireless device mimics real touch by replicating vibrations, pressure, stretching, and more—delivering a ...

Most haptic devices only deliver feedback as simple vibrations. New device applies dynamic forces in any direction to simulate a more realistic sense of touch. Small, lightweight device can enhance ...

A research team led by Professors Stefan Seelecke and Paul Motzki from Saarland University is using a highly versatile film ...

A study published in Engineering provides a comprehensive review of actuation and locomotion methods for miniature underwater ...

Northwestern says the new device can simulate a much more realistic sense of touch. It could even let deaf people "feel" ...

When it comes to haptic feedback, most technologies are limited to simple vibrations. But our skin is loaded with tiny sensors that detect pressure, vibration, stretching and more.

The study builds on previous work from Rogers’ and Huang’s labs, in which they designed a programmable array of miniature vibrating actuators to convey a sense of touch. We built a tiny actuator that ...

Briefcase-size miniature robot turns extreme pressure into propulsion to traverse Mariana Trench, paving way for future ...

These are just some of the devices made possible using thin silicone films that can be precisely controlled so that they ...

Clothes that can mimic the feeling of being touched, touch displays that provide haptic feedback to users, or even ultralight loudspeakers. These are ...
