Devices for Tactile Simulation

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Cognitive Systems Monographs ((COSMOS,volume 10))

Abstract

Nearly every office or home computer is capable of graphics or sound output in a quality that, because of the limits of human perception, hardly needs to be improved. The haptic impression however is limited to the contours of the keyboard and the mouse.
