Abstract

In this section, several examples of task-specific haptic systems are given. They give an insight into the process of defining haptic interactions for a given purpose and illustrate the development and evaluation process outlined in this book so far. Examples were chosen by the editors to cover different basic system structures. Section 14.1Tactile You-Are-Here-Maps illustrates the usage of a tactile display in an assistive manner, enabling a more autonomous movement of people with visual impairments. Section 14.2User Interface for Automotive Applications presents the development of a haptic interface for a new kind of user interaction in a car. It incorporates touch input and is able to simulate different key characteristics for intuitive haptic feedback. Section 14.3HapCath describes a comanipulation system to provide additional haptic feedback in cardiovascular interventions. The feedback is intended to reduce exposure for both patient and physician and to permit new kinds of diagnosis during an intervention.
