Haptic Revolver: Touch, Shear, Texture, and Shape Rendering on a Reconfigurable Virtual Reality ...
summary
A handheld VR controller uses an actuated wheel that raises to give contact and spins to render shear, textures, and 3D shapes; hardware is a servo + DC motor with a quadrature encoder. Two user studies vary motion control modes (1D, 2D, position-controlled shear, skin deformation, off) and a gain sweep (17 gains −1.6…1.6). Spinning boosts perceived realism, users are largely insensitive to spin direction (only 1 of 12 noticed reversal), and realism plateaus, so the system uses gain 0.6 default.
