Things con 2015 workshop

Things con 2015 workshop

At Thingscon 2015 in Berlin I did a workshop on haptic interactions. First half of the two hours was dedicated to inspiration, second half for exploring and sharing. This is the presentation.

 A glass. A hat. A shirt. 
 A belt. A ring. A glove. 
 A sock. A sleeve. 
 A wearable.

  • 18. Haptics is the science of applying touch (tactile) sensation to interact with computer applications.
  • 19. vibro, warmth, pressure, touch, sweat, heartbeat
  • 20. Touch as information Cryoscope Weathervane
  • 21. Hug shirt Garment as touchpoint
  • 22. Jewelery Ringly
  • 23. Elitac Navigate
  • 24. Pavlok give electric shocks to change your habits Extreme persuasion
  • 25. Reverse haptics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWu9TFJjHaM
  • 26. [Tekstslide…] …
  • 27. New communications Apple Watch digital touch
  • 28. New interactions on haptic Research & Development Cooperation with Digital Life Lab, HvA Related to behavior design, notifications as design pattern
  • 29. Nerve fibers detect tempature differences free nerve endings detect servere pain and high pressure Merkel endings detect continuous pressure Ruffini endings detect tension in different layers; stretching Pacinian endings detect high vibtations Skin is a complex organ
  • 30. Changing voltage creates electronic connector between finger and surface Structure and movement (dynamic) play a major role for rich haptic experiences Electro vibration Skin is not good in exact location, so easy to simulate
  • 31. Some learnings The wristis the most efficient place for recieving haptic signals. Vibro-haptic stimuli are very effective. 
 Contextis important for understanding though. 4 cmis the resolution distance for incremental feel.
