Abstract :
Surface haptic devices modulate the friction between the surface and the fingertip, and can thus be used to create a tactile perception of surface features or textures. We present modeling and experimental results on both ultrasonic and electrostatic surface haptic devices, characterizing their dynamics and their bandwidth for rendering haptic effects.
