“…Daily interpersonal communication make use of physical contact to convey and receive haptic sensations that inform on the emotional state and animacy of others. Rigid correlation between stimuli and resulting abstract feelings has not been drawn, but the presence, not the content, of haptic stimuli reveal a non-trivial impact on the quality of communication [37]. Nevertheless, we have found that temperature, pressure and frequency of haptic outputs are important characteristics to triggering emotional responses in the user.…”

“…One study shows that haptic stimuli provided in conjunction with audio clips of conversations enhanced our perception of the conversations' qualities (more animate, pleasant, warm, etc.) [37]. However, the influence of the stimuli is not reported by the participants, despite observed differences when compared to a control group [37].…”

“…[37]. However, the influence of the stimuli is not reported by the participants, despite observed differences when compared to a control group [37]. Similarly, the inclusion of haptic qualities of a conversation in telecommunication is often overlooked when designing immersive experiences, despite their powerfully persuasive effects.…”

“…Nevertheless, we have found that temperature, pressure and frequency of haptic outputs are important characteristics to triggering emotional responses in the user. Changes to initial body temperature affect subjects' emotional response measured with skin conductance response (SCR); higher ratings of arousal and dominance are reported with contact to a pre-adjusted temperature source than through dynamically adjusting the contact to a target temperature [37]. The same study suggests that warmer or colder stimuli do not matter, while other literature suggests warmer stimuli are associated with pleasantness [39,40].…”

Audiovisual human-computer-interfaces still make up the majority of content to the public; however, haptic interfaces offer unique advantage over the dominant information infrastructure, particularly for users with a disability or diminishing cognitive and physical skills like the elderly. The tactile sense allows users to integrate new, unobstructive channels for digital information into their sensorium, one that is less likely to be overwhelmed compared to vision and audition. Haptics research focus on the development of hardware, improving resolution, modality, and fidelity of the actuators. Despite the technological limitations, haptic interfaces are shown to reinforce physical skill acquisition, therapy, and communication. This chapter will present key characteristics intuitive tactile interfaces should capture for elderly end-users; sample projects will showcase unique applications and designs that identify the limitations of the UI.

“…One question concerns how people experience interpersonal haptic communication in their daily activity. Takahashi, Mitsuhashi, Norieda, Sendoda, Murata & Watanabe (2010) and Takahashi et al (2011c) conducted a psychological survey to investigate this question. Another question is whether haptic communication could change the subjective quality of an experience, and if so, how.…”

is a University Research Chair and Professor in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Ottawa. He is an internationally-recognized scholar who has made notable contributions to the knowledge and understanding of multimedia computing, communications and applications -particularly in the digitization, communication and security of the sense of touch ("haptics") which is a new medium that is significantly changing the way in which human-to-human and human-computer interactions are performed. He has authored and co-authored four books, more than 350 publications and received research grants and contracts totaling more than $16 Mio. More than 90 researchers were under his mentorships and he received several international awards. He is currently a fellow of the Engineering Institute of Canada, The Canadian Academy of Engineers and IEEE.
