Abstract: Device (100) for applying haptic stimuli to a body part (200) of a user, comprising a stiff support (30) configured to contact the body part 200; a containing element configured to keep the body part (200) in contact with the stiff support (30); an actuating element configured to push the stiff support (30) into the containing element and apply a pressure to the body part 200. The containing element comprises a stiff frame (10) defining a recess (20) to house the body part 200. The frame (10) comprises two lateral stiff guides (51) defining the recess (20) and the stiff support (30) is configured to move in a guided manner in the stiff guides (51). At least one servomotor (40, 40?) is provided connected integrally to the stiff frame (10) on the opposite side to the stiff support (30) with respect to the recess (20) and arranged to cause a relative movement, inside the recess (20) and with respect to the lateral stiff rails (51), of the stiff support (30) with respect to the body part (200).
