Aerohaptics give sense of touch to holograms

摘要

Engineers at Glasgow University have developed aerohaptics, a new system that creates the sensation of physical touch when interacting with holographic projections. The aerohaptics system pairs volumetric display technology and a leap motion sensor with precisely controlled jets of air to create the sensation of touch on users' hands, fingers and wrists. Researchers hope the EPSRC-funded project could lead to advances in remote interaction.
