Research & Concept

This project explores the boundaries between physical touch and digital interaction. Through extensive research into haptic feedback systems and embodied cognition, we developed new ways to translate tactile experiences into digital formats.

Research materials and tactile experiments
Initial tactile interface tests
User experience research sessions

Understanding how people naturally interact with different textures and surfaces informed our digital translation methods.

Interactive Prototypes

We developed several interactive prototypes that challenged conventional ideas about touch in digital spaces, using vibrotactile feedback and visual metaphors to create new sensory experiences.

Final Implementation

Final interactive installation

The final installation successfully bridged digital and physical realms, allowing users to experience touch through multiple sensory channels and creating new vocabularies for tactile digital interaction.
