SONARIOS: A Design Futuring-Driven Exploration of Acoustophoresis

Sound waves shape not only our ability to hear but also offer new ways to interact with and experience our environment. Acoustophoresis, a method of manipulating objects using the mechanical energy of sound, enables multimodal displays incorporating touch, taste, vision, and more. While current research has focused on…

Mid-Air Haptic Feedback Improves Implicit Agency and Trust in Gesture-Based Automotive Infotainment Systems: a Driving Simulator Study

Gesture-based interactions for automotive infotainment systems pose advantages over touchscreens such as alleviating the visual field. While the focus of these advantages is on improving the driving task, it is also important that a user feels in control and perceives influence over the in-vehicle system. This is know…

FabSound: Audio-Tactile and Affective Fabric Experiences Through Mid-air Haptics

The sound produced when touching fabrics, like a blanket, often provides information regarding the fabric’s texture properties (e.g., its roughness). Fabric roughness is one of the most important aspects of assessing fabric tactile properties. Prior research has demonstrated that touch-related sounds can alter the per…

Feellustrator: A Design Tool for Ultrasound Mid-Air Haptics

Ultrasound mid-air haptic technology provides a large space of design possibilities, as one can modulate the ultrasound intensity in a continuous 3D space at a high speed over time. Yet, the need for programming the patterns limits rapid ideation and testing of alternatives. We present Feellustrator, a graphical desig…

Responsible Innovation of Touchless Haptics: A Prospective Design Exploration in Social Interaction

The rapid development of touchless systems has introduced many innovations in social interaction scenarios in recent years. People now can interact with touchless systems in social applications that are aimed to be used in everyday situations in the future. This accelerated development makes us ask, what will the next…

Exploring the Use of Mid-Air Ultrasonic Feedback to Enhance Automotive User Interfaces

Employing a 2x2 within-subjects design, forty-eight experienced drivers (28 male, 20 female) undertook repeated button selection and ‘slider-bar’ manipulation tasks, to compare a traditional touchscreen with a virtual mid-air gesture interface in a driving simulator. Both interfaces were tested with and without haptic…

Mid-Air Haptics for Control Interfaces

Control interfaces and interactions based on touch-less gesture tracking devices have become a prevalent research topic in both industry and academia. Touch-less devices offer a unique interaction immediateness that makes them ideal for applications where direct contact with a physical controller is not desirable. On…
