“…A SMA springs-based soft actuator module (SAM) [71] assembling a connected series of four SAM to develop a soft manipulator was designed, which is capable of three-dimensional spatial grasping motion. Finger-wearable haptic devices [72] for multi-DoF cutaneous force feedback driven by four SMA wires for tip-tilt mechanisms and the planar XY spring with four SMA helixes are employed. An artificial finger [73] is a reproduction of the human finger bone and phalangeal structure, actuated by SMA wires.…”

This paper mainly focuses on various types of robots driven or actuated by shape memory alloy (SMA) element in the last decade which has created the potential functionality of SMA in robotics technology, that is classified and discussed. The wide spectrum of increasing use of SMA in the development of robotic systems is due to the increase in the knowledge of handling its functional characteristics such as large actuating force, shape memory effect, and super-elasticity features. These inherent characteristics of SMA can make robotic systems small, flexible, and soft with multi-functions to exhibit different types of moving mechanisms. This article comprehensively investigates three subsections on soft and flexible robots, driving or activating mechanisms, and artificial muscles. Each section provides an insight into literature arranged in chronological order and each piece of literature will be presented with details on its configuration, control, and application.

“…Wearing such skin-stretch devices on multiple fingers gives the ability to render a feeling of weight of a virtual object and roughness of virtual surfaces. Lim et al [94] presented a haptic device with a moving actuator. The tactor is set into motion by SMA actuators through two transmission mechanisms: a 3-DoF tip-tilt and 2-DoF planar 3D-printed springs.…”

Haptic Devices: Wearability-Based Taxonomy and Literature Review

2022

In the last decade, several new haptic devices have been developed, contributing to the definition of more realistic virtual environments. An overview on this topic requires a description of the various technologies employed in building such devices, and of their application domains. This survey describes the current technology underlying haptic devices, based on the concept of "wearability level". More than 90 devices, newly developed and described in scientific papers published in the period 2010-2021, are reviewed, which provide either haptic illusions or novel haptic feedback for teleoperation, entertainment, training, education, guidance and notification. As a result, the analyzed systems are divided into grounded, hand-held and wearable devices; the latter are further split into exoskeletons and gloves, finger-worn devices, and arm-worn devices. For the systems in each of these categories, descriptions and tables are provided that analyze their structure, including device mass and employed actuators, their applications, and other characteristics such as type of haptic feedback and tactile illusions. The paper also provides an overview of devices worn in parts of the human body other than arms and hands, and precisely haptic vests, jackets and belts, and haptic devices for head, legs and feet. Based on this analysis, the survey also provides a discussion on research gaps and challenges, and potential future directions.INDEX TERMS haptic devices, virtual reality interfaces, kinesthetic feedback, tactile feedback, haptic illusions.

“…While vibration has been investigated for delivering haptic information regarding surface roughness through the application of different frequencies, [12] vibratory actuators are ineffective in conveying detailed information about shape and surface structure. [13][14][15][16] To address the limitations of the conventional actuators and provide users with rich tactile sensations, tactile interactions in rotational shear mode have been explored, where the rotational movement of a tactor is employed to stimulate cutaneous receptors. [10,11,14,[17][18][19] Pneumatic/hydraulic actuators and servo motors have been widely explored to exert a rotational shear force.…”

The rapid advancements in artificial intelligence, particularly in the domains of robotics, prosthetics, and virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR), have driven an escalating demand for intuitive and effective human–machine interactions. Consequently, haptic devices, being electronic displays for the sense of touch, have drawn increasing attention. More efforts are in demand to develop stretchable and lightweight haptic devices that can trigger multiple mechanical cutaneous receptors using a single device. This work presents a new 3‐modal 5‐DOF stretchable haptic interface that is enabled by electromagnetic actuators and high‐fidelity multi‐layer metal printing. The haptic device renders rich haptic sensations (i.e., normal force, vibration, angular force, skin dragging) in one device, allowing for the comprehensive delivery of tactile information through the excitation of multiple cutaneous receptors. Additionally, haptic devices are designed to be compact, lightweight, and skin‐compatible. The skin‐like softness and stretchability enable intimate skin contact, which is crucial for efficient haptic information delivery. This feature prevents the impediment to natural movements of the skin and ensures the functional integrity of the device during daily deformations of the skin. Finally, three proof‐of‐concept demonstrations illustrate the potential of the reported multimodal haptic devices for advanced haptic interactions across various domains.
