Description:: As the technology enabling touch-sense rendering of virtual textures grows in efficacy and prevalence, so too grows the need for a standardized means of storing, transferring, and reconstituting textural signals. Furthermore, to achieve the ultra-low-latency requirements of the next generation of global communications networks, this digital texture representation must be...

Description:: In this dissertation I explore the applications and test the limitations of surface haptics technology in producing tactile experiences akin to those encountered in the real world. The goal of this work is to build intuition around physical aspects of touch that contribute to perception of tactile textures in...

Description:: Friction modulation technology developed over the past decade now enables the creation of rich textural effects on flat haptic displays. However, an intuitive and manageably small design space for construction of such haptic textures remains an unfulfilled goal for user interface designers. In this thesis, I explore perceptually relevant features...
