Virtual reality technology is developing fast. But up until recently, most approaches have focused on sight and sound, relatively few have tackled touch. Now, researchers at Northwestern University have created a flexible ‘haptic skin’ which aims to create a new way to experience virtual reality – a physical interface between the virtual world and a user’s skin. The device translates virtual signals into physical sensations, designed to mimic the feeling of being touched.
