Opening Keynote:
Tactile feedback in mobile devices Piers Andrew
The near ubiquity of touchscreen inputs for mobile devices means that haptic feedback technologies are increasingly important. Various means of delivering such tactile feedback in mobile and portable devices will be discussed, and a recently developed Electrostatic Tactile (ET) feedback system providing programmable tactile feedback to mobile displays will be described. The ET system is a robust, thin, and optically transparent structure integrated on top of the display, and exploits the well-known phenomenon of electrovibration to create a controllable frictional force between a user’s fingertip and the surface. Localized tactile information is delivered to the user’s skin directly and the magnitude and pattern of the frictional force experienced is correlated with displayed images and the touch location. A variety of different materials have been demonstrated, including those compatible with flexible devices, such as the Nokia Kinetic Device.
