Area of Science:

  • Human-computer interaction
  • Haptic technology
  • Virtual reality

Background:

  • Manual interaction with objects relies on perceiving properties like texture and stiffness.
  • Virtual reality (VR) aims for immersive experiences, with haptic feedback enhancing realism.
  • Wearable haptic devices (HDs) are crucial for delivering tactile sensations in virtual environments (VEs).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and categorize recent wearable haptic devices (HDs) based on verified object property (OP) exploration in virtual environments (VEs).
  • To analyze user-testing methodologies and findings for HDs in VEs.
  • To inform the design of future haptic interactions in VR.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature search for wearable HDs tested in VEs.
  • Categorization of devices by explored object properties (e.g., texture, stiffness, weight).
  • Analysis of 13 studies involving user-testing with healthy subjects.

Main Results:

  • Identified various technological solutions for different OP explorations in wearable HDs.
  • Found 13 studies specifically focusing on user-testing of these devices in VEs.
  • Highlighted the importance of user-testing for validating haptic feedback realism.

Conclusions:

  • Wearable HDs are advancing realistic virtual interactions by providing object property feedback.
  • Further research and development are needed to optimize HDs for diverse OP explorations in VEs.
  • This review provides a roadmap for designing effective haptic object interactions in VR.
