Abstract
We describe a system comprising two or several haptic probes each having a sensor, an actuator, and circuitry. The inputs and outputs can be connected to audio channels of standard audio equipment and hence be networked via computers. When a user manipulates a probe to scratch and tap surfaces, the other users can share her haptic experience.
