HRM 3440 Chapter 11 Notes Summary
Introduction
The haptic interface, which relays the sense of touch and other physical sensations in
the virtual world, is the least developed and perhaps the most challenging to create.
A Japanese virtual reality company has developed a haptic interface device that can be
plaed o a perso’s figertips to gie a aurate feel for gae players, surgeos, ad
others.
Curretly, ith the use of a gloe ad positio traker, the oputer loates the user’s
hand and measures finger movements.
The user can reach into the virtual world and handle objects
However, it is difficult to generate the sensations of a person tapping a hard surface,
picking up an object, or running a finger across a textured surface.
Touch sensations also have to be synchronized with the sights and sounds users
experience.
Today, some virtual reality developers are even trying to incorporate taste and smell
into virtual reality applications.
According to a virtual reality researcher at the University of Warwick Digital Lab, The
crucial thing for virtual reality is that it will hit all five senses in a highly realistic manner
We need to have smell, we need to have taste.
Forms of Virtual Reality
Aside from immersive virtual reality, virtual reality can also refer to applications that are
not fully immersive, such as mouse-controlled navigation through a 3D environment on
a graphics monitor, stereo viewing from the monitor via stereo glasses, stereo
projection systems, and others.
Augmented reality, a newer form of virtual reality, has the potential to superimpose
digital data over real photos or images.
