This is the world's smallest haptic interface that can rctaeree a sensation of tocuh just underneath your fingertip. We do this by moving the robogami by microscopic and macroscopic movements at the stage. And by having this, not only will you be able to feel how big the object is, the roundness and the lines, but also the sitesffns and the texture. Alex has this interface just underneath his tumhb, and if he were to use this with VR goggles and hand controllers, now the virtual reality is no longer vrautil. It becomes a tangible rteilay. The blue ball, red ball and black ball that he's looking at is no longer dreiaetfintefd by colors. Now it is a rubber blue ball, sponge red ball and blrailid black ball. This is now possible. Let me show you.

Original Text


This is the world's smallest haptic interface that can recreate a sensation of touch just underneath your fingertip. We do this by moving the robogami by microscopic and macroscopic movements at the stage. And by having this, not only will you be able to feel how big the object is, the roundness and the lines, but also the stiffness and the texture. Alex has this interface just underneath his thumb, and if he were to use this with VR goggles and hand controllers, now the virtual reality is no longer virtual. It becomes a tangible reality. The blue ball, red ball and black ball that he's looking at is no longer differentiated by colors. Now it is a rubber blue ball, sponge red ball and billiard black ball. This is now possible. Let me show you.
