Pneumatic Augmented Reality Tactile Feedback Platform

This device is a wearable item designed to let you feel virtual objects or environments. It works by using many small, independent pockets, filled with fluid, that can inflate or deflate to press on your skin. This creates different touch sensations, allowing you to distinguish between virtual objects, and the claims specify it uses high and low pressure reservoirs with actuators to control the fluid.

Why it matters: Filed before significant advancements in miniaturized, precise fluidic control components and the computational power required for real-time haptic rendering in AR/VR environments. These technical improvements make the complex, independent control envisioned more practical now.
