Abstract
Haptic enhanced boundaries are important for touch interaction. We quantify the amount of perceived force increment caused by adding variable friction tactile feedback to force feedback in simulating a boundary. We find that using a small lateral force feedback plus a tactile feedback can simulate a boundary which feels as stiff as that simulated by a large lateral force feedback. Moreover, the effect of the tactile feedback may be explained as a lateral force increment caused by increasing the friction coefficient of the touch surface.
