With SORI, a haptic device capable of reproducing the softness of various materials, researchers from the Reconfigurable Robotics Lab have created a robotic platform that can transfer the feeling of touch digitally. By decoupling cutaneous and kinesthetic cues, SORI can recreate the softness of a range of real materials, filling a gap in the robotics field. The device is equipped with motor-driven origami joints that can be modulated to become stiffer or more supple. A flow of air inflates the m

With its advanced haptic technology, the user can feel what the robot’s hands are touching from anywhere in the world🤖🦾 | In The Know

Mitsubishi Electric has developed pseudo-haptic technology enabling users to feel object weight in VR without physical devices. By modulating the virtual hand and viewpoint with movements, it recreates full-body weight sensation. This work will be presented at ISMAR 2025, a leading XR/HCI conference, and tested for real XR work use. Click here to learn more 👉 https://www.ieeeismar.net/2025/ | Mitsubishi Electric
