Kodak, B.L. (author), Vardar, Y. (author)The ever-emerging mobile market induced a blooming interest in stylus-based interactions. Most state-of-the-art styluses either provide no haptic feedback or only deliver one type of sensation, such as vibration or skin stretch. Improving these devices with display abilities of a palette of tactile feels can pave the way for rendering...journal article 2023

Eichenlaub, J.A. (author), Huisman, G. (author), Xue, H. (author)Mind-wandering (MW) and fidgeting are both present as pervasive phenomena in everyday life and can positively impact ideation. Importantly, within the MW experience, MW can manifest in bodily behaviors such as physical fidgeting. Here, we use an extended mind framework to consider fidgeting as a case of extended MW, where (part of) a MW episode...conference paper 2023

Ghodrat, S. (author), Sandhir, P. (author), Huisman, G. (author)Wearable haptic assistive devices can provide tactile information to visually impaired people (VIP) to support independent living. However, electromechanical haptic feedback has a number of disadvantages, including hardware being relatively heavy, large, and producing excessive sound. Here, we present a design-driven investigation of the...journal article 2023

El Ali, Abdallah (author), Stepanova, Ekaterina R. (author), Palande, Shalvi (author), Mader, Angelika (author), Cesar, Pablo (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author)Sharing breathing signals has the capacity to provide insights into hidden experiences and enhance interpersonal communication. However, it remains unclear how the modality of breath signals (visual, haptic) is socially interpreted during collaborative tasks. In this mixed-methods study, we design and evaluate BreatheWithMe, a prototype for...conference paper 2023

Ooms, Simone (author), Lee, Minha (author), Cesar, Pablo (author), El Ali, Abdallah (author)Emotion plays a key role in the emerging wave of immersive, multi-sensory audience news engagement experiences. Since emotions can be triggered by somatosensory feedback, in this work we explore how augmenting news video watching with haptics can influence affective perceptions of news. Using a mixed-methods approach, we design and evaluate...conference paper 2023

van Wegen, M. (author), Herder, J.L. (author), Adelsberger, Rolf (author), Pastore-Wapp, Manuela (author), Van Wegen, Erwin E H (author), Bohlhalter, Stephan (author), Nef, Tobias (author), Krack, Paul (author), Vanbellingen, Tim (author)We often interact with our environment through manual handling of objects and exploration of their properties. Object properties (OP), such as texture, stiffness, size, shape, temperature, weight, and orientation provide necessary information to successfully perform interactions. The human haptic perception system plays a key role in this. As...review 2023

Afzal, Hafiz Malik Naqash (author), Stubbs, Emma (author), Khamis, Heba (author), Loutit, Alastair J. (author), Redmond, Stephen (author), Vickery, Richard Martin (author), Wiertlewski, M. (author), Birznieks, Ingvars (author)Human tactile perception and motor control rely on the frictional estimates that stem from the deformation of the skin and slip events. However, it is not clear how exactly these mechanical events relate to the perception of friction. This study aims to quantify how minor lateral displacement and speed enables subjects to feel frictional...journal article 2022

Smeets, Jeroen B.J. (author), Vos, Kim (author), Abbink, Emma (author), Plaisier, M.A. (author)The size-weight illusion is well-known: if two equally heavy objects differ in size, the large one feels lighter than the small one. Most explanations for this illusion assume that because the information about the relevant attribute (weight itself) is unreliable, information about an irrelevant but correlated attribute (size) is used as well...journal article 2022

(author), Golmohammadi, Lili (author), Pourjafarian, Narges (author), Frier, William (author), Howard, Thomas (author), Ipakchian Askari, Sima (author)The social and sensory aspects of touch are critical for human communication, yet the challenges of haptic technology development and a focus on the technological means that digital touch communication often fails to realise the potential and promise of touch. The Manifesto for Digital Social Touch in Crisis responds to this through a call to...journal article 2022

Huisman, G. (author)Research on mediated social touch (MST) has, either implicitly or explicitly, built on theoretical assumptions regarding social interactions that align with “theory theory” or “simulation theory” of social cognition. However, these approaches struggle to explain MST interactions that occur outside of a laboratory setting. I briefly discuss these...journal article 2022

van Hattum, Martijn T. (author), Huisman, G. (author), Toet, Alexander (author), van Erp, Jan B.F. (author)In recent years, there has been a significant increase in research on mediated communication via social touch. Previous studies indicated that mediated social touch (MST) can induce similar positive outcomes to interpersonal touch. However, studies investigating the user experience of MST technology predominantly involve brief experiments...journal article 2022

Vardar, Y. (author), Kuchenbecker, Katherine J. (author)Electrovibration holds great potential for creating vivid and realistic haptic sensations on touchscreens. Ideally, a designer should be able to control what users feel independent of the number of fingers they use, the movements they make, and how hard they press. We sought to understand the perception and physics of such interactions by...journal article 2021

Ratz, Raphael (author), Conti, François (author), Müri, René M. (author), Marchal Crespo, L. (author)Neurorehabilitation research suggests that not only high training intensity, but also somatosensory information plays a fundamental role in the recovery of stroke patients. Yet, there is currently a lack of easy-to-use robotic solutions for sensorimotor hand rehabilitation. We addressed this shortcoming by developing a novel clinical-driven...journal article 2021

This call is motivated by concerns that social touch is in a...journal article 2021

Fu, W. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Limitations of a haptic device can cause distortions of the force feedback it presents. Just-noticeable difference (JND) in system dynamics is important for creating transparent haptic interaction. Based on the previous work, this article presents a unified model that extends the existing JND rule. Our approach projects the JNDs in the...journal article 2020

Fu, W. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Abbink, D.A. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Time delays in haptic teleoperation affect the ability of human operators to assess mechanical properties (damping, mass, and stiffness) of the remote environment. To address this, we propose a unified framework for human haptic perception of the mechanical properties of environments with delayed force feedback. In a first experiment, we...journal article 2019

van Oosterhout, J. (author)The success of future fusion power plants as a sustainable energy source greatly depends on their uptime. This uptime relies on the plant's maintenance, which must be performed via tele-manipulation. Tele-manipulated maintenance is challenging, as exemplified by strictly selected and highly trained operators who still require more time to work...doctoral thesis 2018

Fu, W. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Abstract—Just notable difference (JND) thresholds for the perception of manipulator dynamic properties are relevant for tele-operation and simulation of vehicles. Manipulator dynamic properties are characterized by multiple variables (describing mass, spring and damping for a linear manipulator) and the JND threshold for any of these variables...conference paper 2018

Beeftink, Derek G. (author), Borst, C. (author), van Baelen, D. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Perspective flight-path displays are a viable alternative for the aircraft primary flight display, but increases the pilot head-down time. A haptic interface is developed to counter this effect and increase the task-sharing performance during approach. An experiment (n=12) was conducted to test the effects of the haptic design on primary task...conference paper 2018

Smisek, J. (author)Teleoperation – performing tasks remotely by controlling a robot – permits the execution of many important tasks that would otherwise be infeasible for people to carry out directly. Nuclear accident recovery, deep water operations, and remote satellite servicing are just three examples. Remote task execution principally offers two extremes for...doctoral thesis 2017
