Abstract:
Mobile interaction can potentially be enhanced with welldesigned
haptic control and display. However, advances
have been limited by a vicious cycle whereby inadequate
haptic technology obstructs inception of vitalizing
applications. We present the first stages of a systematic
design effort to break that cycle, beginning with specific
usage scenarios and a new handheld display platform based
on lateral skin stretch. Results of a perceptual device
characterization inform mappings between device
capabilities and specific roles in mobile interaction, and the
next step of hardware re-engineering.
