Abstract

In the chapters of “Component Design”, we introduced sensing technologies and displaying technologies treating both independently. However, these technologies are related. In this chapter we consider the links that can be made. Gibson coined the term, “active touch.” This term implis haptic interfaces also require mutual interactivity. We discuss about necessity of bidirectionality between input/output and the way how to design haptic devices. Furthermore, we consider attractive content of haptic media and their several bidirectionalities.
