In this paper, we present ongoing and continued work on the development of the HaptiVerse system, which comprises hardware, software, and a library of meaning-bearing haptic signs. It enables the development of sophisticated haptic patterns that can be exchanged between two or more users, in close proximity or remotely, or for the creation of haptic sentences. It can also be used by individuals to practice on and learn haptic signs at their own pace and from their preferred location. The current HaptiVerse system is the expansion and improvement of work presented previously in Olson and Jarvoll, 2022 which described a standalone desktop application. HaptiVerse includes extended functionality, online remote connection, and one-to-many communication. Additional features being developed currently include a more sophisticated functionality and improved user-friendliness.

摘要

In this paper, we present ongoing and continued work on the development of the HaptiVerse system, which comprises hardware, software, and a library of meaning-bearing haptic signs. It enables the development of sophisticated haptic patterns that can be exchanged between two or more users, in close proximity or remotely, or for the creation of haptic sentences. It can also be used by individuals to practice on and learn haptic signs at their own pace and from their preferred location. The current HaptiVerse system is the expansion and improvement of work presented previously in Olson and Jarvoll, 2022 which described a standalone desktop application. HaptiVerse includes extended functionality, online remote connection, and one-to-many communication. Additional features being developed currently include a more sophisticated functionality and improved user-friendliness.
