The term ""haptics"" refers to the science of sensing and manipulation through touch. Multiple disciplines such as biomechanics, psychophysics, robotics, neuroscience, and software engineering converge to support haptics, and generally, haptic research is done by three communiti…
The sense of touch is fundamental during the interaction between humans and their environment; in virtual reality, objects are created by computer simulations and they can be experienced through haptic devices. In this context haptic textures are fundamental for a realistic hapt…

"Each of the studies included in this book establishes a powerful case for touch. In bringing this wide-ranging research together, the Johnson & Johnson Pediatric Institute's goal is to remind us that in this high technology world, there is still room for low technology therapie…
