From: D Yuniskis on 28 Feb 2010 22:44 Hi, What makes a haptic interface "good"? bad? *Exceptional*? What would you nominate as the "best" haptic interface? What (electronic) device would you nominate as having the best haptic interface? And, of course, "why", in each case. Thanks! --don

Pointing something out on a screen, inputting text and/or context-sensitive instructions, digging a ditch, positioning concrete slabs, removing a kidney and piloting an aircraft would usually benefit from different interface properties (haptic or not). > What (electronic) device would you nominate as having the > best haptic interface?

The good interface is a big green square button with inscription: "I WANT EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW !" The best interface is a big green round button without any inscriptions. VLV |
