A new innovative haptic device developed at GET Lab

Α new wearable haptic device designed and developed through the PhD work of our PhD student Ali Najm who is conducting his PhD at our GET Lab.

The modular design, of our developed system namely HRH device, supports a wide range of actuators, enhancing its versatility for various applications. A comparison of our proposed system with existing solutions indicates that the HRH system outperforms other devices by encapsulating several key features, including adjustability, affordability, modularity, and high-resolution feedback. The HRH system not only aims to advance the field of haptic feedback but also introduces an intuitive tool for exploring new methods of human–computer and XR interactions.

More information for this work can be found in the published scientific journal, entitled “Development of a Modular Adjustable Wearable Haptic Device for XR Applications”, co-authored by PhD student Ali Najm, our senior associate researcher Assis. Prof. Domna Banakou who is a member of the PhD supervising committee and the main PhD supervisor Assoc. Prof. Despina Michael-Grigoriou.
