Defining Haptic Experience: Foundations for Understanding, Communicating, and Evaluating HX
(ACM, 2020-04-25)Haptic technology is maturing, with expectations and evidence that it will contribute to user experience (UX). However, we have very little understanding about how haptic technology can influence people’s experience. ... -
Effectiveness of Vibration-based Haptic Feedback Effects for 3D Object Manipulation
(University of Waterloo, 2008-05-14)This research explores the development of vibration-based haptic feedback for a mouse-like computer input device. The haptic feedback is intended to be used in 3D virtual environments to provide users of the environment ... -
Juicy Haptic Design: Vibrotactile Embellishments Can Improve Player Experience in Games
(ACM, 2021-05)Game designers and researchers employ a sophisticated language for producing great player experiences with concepts such as juici- ness, which refers to excessive positive feedback. However, much of their discourse excludes ... -
Measuring Haptic Experience: Elaborating the HX model with scale development
(IEEE, 2021-07-06)Designers increasingly employ haptic feedback with the aim to improve user experience (UX). Designers and researchers currently use qualitative methods or demos for feedback, but neither approach scales to large studies ... -
Tickle Trunk: a Toolkit for Communication and Brainstorming Between Hapticians and Non-Hapticians
(University of Waterloo, 2023-05-25)This thesis introduces the Tickle Trunk, a haptic communication toolkit designed to support communication and brainstorming for haptic and tangible interaction design. Haptic technology is becoming increasingly popular in ...
