My Collection of Haptics Technology Papers

I went through thousands of haptics papers thanks to my advisor who gave me so much of time. I was able to compile a list of all the papers and also classify them into categories and as I believe in information dissemination I have made these available from my website.

I have divided the papers into five basic categories. For more on this classification please visit the white paper webpage and you can email me for a copy.

1) Basic Haptics: Papers related to simple haptic signal generation, control engineering papers and conventional haptic rendering

2) Low Level Haptics: Papers related to haptic and other modality. These are typically papers on multimodal interface, telesurgery and robotics. These involve more than one modality. In many of these haptics plays a supporting role.

3) High Level Haptics: Papers related to applications with just haptic modality and perceptual modeling of haptic data. Applications for individuals who are blind, museum displays fall in this category.

4) Efficient Haptics: These are papers related to increasing efficiency of haptics over networks and haptic compression

5) Rehabilitation: These are papers related to haptic in rehabilitation

For each of these categories the papers are further sub-divided. If you need these papers please email me. I will provide them. Due to copyright limitations I cannot provide direct links to them.

Basic Haptics Papers

The basic haptics paper are subdividied into three categories. Papers that make psychophysical evaluations, papers that are centered around technical innovations and papers which do both.

In the list of papers the following is the naming convention. The papers name has author and year of publication and is prefixed by Psy, Tech or Psy_Tech

Psy means psychophysical experiments

Tech means technological innovation

Psy_Tech means both

Low Level Haptics Papers

The low level haptics paper are subdividied into three categories. Papers about multimodal interfaces, papers about telesurgery and papers with basic robotics

In the list of papers the following is the naming convention. The papers name has author and year of publication and is prefixed by R_, S_ or M_

R_ stands for paper in robotics and teleoperation

S_ stands for surgery

M_ multimodal interfaces

There may be some papers that combine these field and those are of the type R_S_ and so on.

High Level Haptics Papers

The high level haptics paper are subdividied into three categories. Papers about artistic innovations, museum display papers and papers about developing assistive devices for the blind

In the list of papers the following is the naming convention. The papers name has author and year of publication and is prefixed by P_, M_ or B_

P_ Artistic

M_ Museum display paper

B_ Assistive devices for the blind

There may be some papers that combine these field and those are of the type M_B_ and so on.

Efficient Haptics Papers

The high level haptics paper are subdividied into two categories. Papers about compression and papers about network applications of haptics.

In the list of papers the following is the naming convention. The papers name has author and year of publication and is prefixed by C_ or N_

C_ compression

N_ Network

There may be some papers that combine these field and those are of the type C_N_ and so on.

Rehabilitation Haptics Papers

The high level haptics paper are subdividied into two categories. Papers about physical rehabilitation and papers about neurological rehabilitation

In the list of papers the following is the naming convention. The papers name has author and year of publication and is prefixed by Psy_ or Neu_

Psy_ means physical rehab

Neu_ means neural rehab

There may be some papers that combine these field and those are of the type C_N_ and so on.
