Interactive Haptic Systems
Class overview
Curious about how humans interact with computers? This course explores system I/O from a human perspective, combining HCI, psychophysics, and haptics. Through hands-on mini-projects and a final project, students will learn about touch perception, user-centered design, and haptic device engineering, culminating in a demo day showcasing their haptic interaction projects. Additional key topics include actuator modeling, haptic rendering, and AR/VR applications.

About me
I've spent over a decade designing haptic systems in both academia and industrya and am passionate to share this area of expertise which is still both a mixture of art and science. Haptics has grown significantly in interest in the last few years, and proliferating knowledge of the field, and its application, is a particular passion of mine. Let's learn about haptics!
