ShapeTouch: Leveraging contact shape on interactive surfaces
Many interactive surfaces have the ability to detect the shape of hands or objects placed on them. However, shape information is typically either condensed to individual contact p...

Detecting and leveraging finger orientation for interaction with direct-touch surfaces
Current interactions on direct-touch interactive surfaces are often modeled based on properties of the input channel that are common in traditional graphical user interfaces (GUI)...

Synthesizing contact sounds between textured models
We present a new interaction handling model for physics-based sound synthesis in virtual environments. A new three-level surface representation for describing object shapes, visib...

Shaping Event-Based Haptic Transients Via an Improved Understanding of Real Contact Dynamics
Haptic interactions with stiff virtual surfaces feel more realistic when a short-duration transient is added to the spring force at contact. But how should this event-based transi...

An Experiment on Tracking Surface Features with the Sensation of Slip
This paper describes the last of three experiments that investigate relative motion between a surface and the fingertip (slip) as part of a larger program of research on “finger...
