System,device and method for providing haptic technology

This device provides touch sensations to your skin using an array of tiny motors. Each motor has a shaft that directly contacts your skin, and its movement is precisely controlled by two clutching actuators and a lateral actuator working together. These actuators can be piezoelectric, allowing for fine-tuned haptic feedback.

Why it matters: Filed before the current boom in virtual and augmented reality, which demands sophisticated haptic feedback. Advances in miniaturization and cost-effectiveness of piezoelectric actuators since 2009 make building such complex arrays more practical now.

Status: ExpiredProtection ended and was never renewed
How hard to build: SpecializedCustom micro-step motors, piezoelectric actuators, precision assembly.
