In her presentation ‘Haptic studies on flexible interior materials’ at the GREWUS interACTIVE HAPTICS Conference, Dr Frauke Junghans will give an overview of the research work on the topic of haptics in her ‘Surfaces’ department. In particular, she will highlight the following aspects:
Overview of our research on haptics
Objectification of human perception (converting it into scalable quantities)
Reconstructing subjective human perceptions from test subject studies using objective measurement and evaluation tools
Important parameters are friction properties, surface structures, their deformability and haptically relevant parameters of thermal behaviour and moisture management
About the conference
Once a year, experts in the field of haptics meet to discuss new results and solutions on various aspects of the subject. GREWUS, as the host of the interACTIVE HAPTICS conference, has set these priorities for this year:
Haptics of seats
Gamification
Haptics trends in the automobile
New actuator technologies
Full body experience
Human senses
HMI solutions
