Vishay / Dale IHPT-1411AF-AB0 Haptic Feedback Actuator features solenoid construction that provides high impulse vibration for clear tactile feedback in noisy environments. The Vishay / Dale IHPT-1411AF-AB0 Haptic Feedback Actuator can drive a 0.5kg load to 6g of acceleration with a...

A group of researchers from the University of Colorado in Boulder (US) is working on the next generation of robots. Instead of the metallic droids concept, these robots are made from soft materials that are more similar to biological systems. Such soft robots hold a huge potential for...

A joint research by the US Air Force Research Laboratory Sensors Directorate and Michigan State University have developed micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) actuator based on smart materials, specifically vanadium dioxide (VO2). In the room temperature, Vanadium dioxide exhibits...

Graham Prophet on edn-europe.com talks about a new cooperation between Kemet and Novasentis aim to develop the next generation of haptic actuators that acts as a second skin for devices. Kemet and Novasentis, developer of haptic and sensory feedback technology for wearable devices,...
