An Accessible Platform for Exploring Haptic Interactions with Co-located Capacitive and Piezoresistive Sensors

Abstract

This paper introduces an open research platform for exploring haptic interactions with co-located, capacitive and piezoresistive sensors. The solution uses readily available material, hardware and software components and allows for experiments on many system levels from low-level material concerns up to high-level sensor fusion software. This provides the HCI community with a platform to accelerate explorations of the many applications that have opened up of sensor fusion in haptic interaction.
