Demonstration of Geppetteau: Enabling haptic perceptions of virtual fluids in various vessel profiles using a string-driven haptic interface

Abstract

Figure 1: Geppetteau uses a string-based pulley system to dynamically relocate a vessel's center of gravity, delivering haptic sensations of virtual fuids. Geppetteau can augment everyday vessel profles, e.g., 4 example vessel shapes shown (left). Users at home or in physical classrooms (middle) can interact with virtual fuids in virtual settings (right).
