We have seen in recent years the rise of commercial virtual reality (VR) technology with the aim of creating a more immersive user experience. There are products for immersive visual experiences with head mounted displays, auditory experiences with surround sound, and kinesthetic experiences with omni directional treadmills. What is missing from this new VR ecosystem is immersive haptic technology. Our haptic vest technology allows users to feel more complex and appropriate tactile feedback. The vest can give users hundreds of distinct perceived points of pressure as well as movement of the perceived points to create tactile images such as geometric shapes and patterns. The technology allows for a far richer tactile experience than anything ever offered before.
