Text-to-Haptics: Enhancing Multisensory Storytelling through Emotionally Congruent Midair Haptics

Abstract

Text-to-Haptics System

Whether it's a story about space, or about butterflies, or both, this innovative text-to-haptics system fuses AI-driven sentiment analysis with ultrasound mid-air haptics, and immersive audio-visual generation, so that users can now feel stories and narratives like never before. Backed by a robust user study, the work unveils a new dimension of emotional engagement, setting the stage for scalable tactile authoring in interactive media applications.
