HAptic SurfAces enhanced by Métamaterials – HASAME
HAptic SurfAces enhanced by Métamaterials
Our daily life has seen the touchscreen emerge, as a cost-effective input device. As a result, vision becomes more predominant in the interaction, which pose serious safety concerns in automotive application for instance.<br />This context legitimates a huge interest in outperforming the existing haptic feedback solutions. The project will address haptic feedback on different surfaces: OLED displays, and other smart surfaces, which can be used in automotive applications.
HASAMé will propose new solutions to create Surfaces that integrate a compelling Haptic Feedback
HASAMé will design new Human Computer Interactions (HCI) that take benefit of a mixed stimulation based on texture and button click simulations.<br />We will also design back layers to the surfaces that can modify its ultrasonic behaviour to match the needs of the application.<br />Finally, HASAMé will develop programmable locally resonant metamaterial in order to ensure the versatility of haptic devices, the robustness of the stimulation and the sensing of key variables.
Our daily life have seen the touchscreen emerge, as a cost-effective input device. As a result, vision becomes more predominant in the interaction, which leads to several disadvantages: they complicate the lives of visually impaired people, and they pose serious safety concerns in automotive application for instance. But introducing more haptic feedback into the interaction is a promising way to cope for these issues. Moreover, these past years have seen emerging technologies that adopt other material – like wood, leather or textile – to become haptic surfaces, ie. surfaces than can change how they are perceived by the users. This leads the industry to propose smart surfaces, which rendering can be set by software and changed over time. This context legitimates a huge interest in outperforming the existing haptic feedback solutions, leanding to the main goal of HASAMé: to propose new solutions to create Surfaces that integrate a compelling Haptic Feedback.
