Summary:
- Researchers have developed a haptic patch that can transmit the complexity of touch to the skin, allowing users to feel a range of tactile sensations.
- The patch uses an array of miniature actuators that can create different patterns of vibration, enabling users to feel textures, shapes, and even the movement of objects.
- This technology has potential applications in remote surgery, virtual reality, and assistive devices for individuals with sensory impairments.
