Airborne Ultrasound Tactile Display

Ultrasound forcefields are used here to create invisible yet tactile 3D objects in space with the entire interaction rendered in computer displays.   So one can reach out and 3D objects without the use of gloves or sensors.   This has weird and interesting ramifications for art, gaming, education, human-computer interface, and of course, ero-tech.


"The team is working to adjust how the transducers are driven in order to produce realistic textures as well as shapes."
