ABSTRACT

Haptic technology, or haptics, is a tactile feedback

technology which takes advantage of a user's sense of touch
by applying forces, vibrations, and/or motions upon the
user. This mechanical stimulation may be used to assist in
the creation of virtual objects, for control of such virtual
objects, and for the enhancement of the remote control of
machines and devices. Haptic may refer to haptic
technology, haptic communication, haptic perception.
Haptic technology interfaces with the user through the
sense of touch. Here, in this paper distinct property of
haptic interfaces, that provides simultaneous exchange of
information between a user and a machine is discussed as
well as paper proceeds with a description of the
components of haptic devices and use of haptics in our
daily life.
