  • Haptic device for creating vibration-, pressure-, and shear-based haptic cues
    Patent number: 10706693
    Abstract: A haptic device is provided that includes a first haptic assembly, comprising (i) a first end effector, and (ii) a first actuator coupled with the first end effector. The first actuator is configured to move the first end effector in first direction(s). The first haptic assembly is configured to create a first haptic stimulation or a second haptic stimulation, felt by a wearer of the haptic device, when the first actuator moves the first end effector in the first direction(s). The haptic device includes a second haptic assembly, comprising: (i) a second end effector, and (ii) a second actuator coupled with the second end effector. The second actuator is configured to move the second end effector in second direction(s). The second haptic assembly is configured to create a third haptic stimulation, felt by the wearer, when the second actuator moves the second end effector in the second direction(s).

  • Cutaneous actuators with dampening layers and end effectors to increase perceptibility of haptic signals
    Patent number: 10388186
    Abstract: A haptic communication device includes one or more cutaneous actuators to generate haptic vibrations corresponding to actuator signals received by the one or more cutaneous actuators. A dampening member, proximate to a body of a user wearing the haptic communication device, focuses the haptic vibrations at one or more distinct locations on the body. The dampening member has one or more first openings, wherein the one or more cutaneous actuators transmit the haptic vibrations to the one or more distinct locations through the one or more first openings. A spacing member contacts the dampening member and is separated from the body by the dampening member. The spacing member has one or more second openings dimensioned to receive and secure the one or more cutaneous actuators.
