Speaking of Food: Understanding How People Talk About Food Experiences

'How was your lunch?’ Even simple food talk reveals how people translate multisensory impressions into language, offering insights for HCI applications such as food recommendation and health management. While prior work has emphasised the multisensory nature of eating, less is known about the linguistic strategies thr…

BioHaptics: Emotion Modulation via Biosignal-Inspired Ultrasonic Mid-air Haptics in Video-Watching Experiences

Ultrasonic mid-air haptics (UMH) offers a novel way to modulate affective responses through contactless, biosignal features inspired haptics (i.e., BioHaptics). Yet, the effects of different BioHaptics on affective responses of emotions experienced during video-watching context are unclear, limiting the flexible emoti…

Illusory-UMH: A Systematic Comparison of Tactile Illusions and Modulation Techniques in Ultrasonic Mid-air Haptics

Spatiotemporal modulation (STM) is the current de facto standard technique for generating continuous tactile sensations in Ultrasonic Mid-Air Haptics (UMH). However, like other techniques, it assumes a uniform sensitivity distribution across the hand. Tactile illusions, such as the funneling effect (FE) and cutaneous…

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…

Flipping Perspectives: Visualising Digital Smell Training

Recovering a lost ability is rarely easy, but unlike strengthening a muscle, progress in smell training, repeated exposure to specific scents to support recovery or maintain function, is often invisible. For those undergoing Digital Smell Training (DST), data visualisations may be the only markers of change. But how c…

Smell Above All: Envisioning Smell-Centred Future Worlds

Take a deep breath; what do you smell? While sight and hearing dominate our perceptions, the sense of smell is often overlooked, even undervalued. However, the importance of our sense of smell goes beyond detecting odours. It shapes our emotions, memories, behaviour, and quality of life. Recent advances in olfactory i…

Controlled-STM: A two-stage model to predict user’s Perceived Intensity for Multi-point Spatiotemporal Modulation in Ultrasonic Mid-air Haptics

Multi-point STM offers a great range of parameters (i.e., drawing frequency, number of points) to produce different tactile sensations. However, existing studies offer limited insight on the effects of these parameters, and ignore their effect on the physical stimuli delivered, limiting effective haptic design. We…

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…

FabTouch: A Tool to Enable Communication and Design of Tactile and Affective Fabric Experiences

The tactile experience of fabric is not only a sensory experience but also an affective one. Our choice of fabric products, like clothing, is often based on how they feel. Effectively communicating such experiences is crucial for designing tactile fabric experiences. However, there remains a lack of comprehensive unde…

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…

Multi-point STM: Exploring the effect of drawing speed and the number of focal points on perceived intensity, valence and arousal in ultrasonic mid-air haptics

Spatiotemporal modulation (STM) is used to render tactile patterns with ultrasound arrays. Previous research only explored the effects of single-point STM parameters, such as drawing speed ($V_d$). Here we explore the effects of multi-point STM on both perceptual (intensity) and emotional (valence/arousal) responses.…

MindTouch: Effect of Mindfulness Meditation on Mid-Air Tactile Perception

As we constantly seek to improve and expand upon the capabilities of technology, we frequently wonder whether we use technology to its fullest extent. Studies indicate that increasing our awareness and mindfulness of our senses may lead to a journey of unexplored experiences. In this paper, we focus on the perception…
