Haptic Engineering and Tangible Controls — actuators, patterns, usability with gloves/in humid conditions.
About us Haptic Engineering and Tangible Controls — actuators, patterns, usability with gloves/in humid conditions.
Haptic Engineering and Tangible Controls addresses the design and analysis of tactile feedback systems using piezoelectric and electrostatic actuators, with a focus on integration with user interfaces that operate under variable conditions, such as when wearing gloves or in humid environments. This discipline is grounded in dynamic modeling and robust control inspired by AFCS and FBW techniques, applying advanced multisensory simulation methods to improve the usability and precision of haptic patterns in eVTOL platforms and UAM vehicles, incorporating principles of aerodynamics, dynamics/control and embedded systems with an emphasis on interoperability and the pilot experience.
The laboratory facilities include HIL/SIL testing for real-time validation, data acquisition systems, and vibration/acoustic analysis tailored to haptic interfaces, with rigorous traceability and compliance tracking under applicable international regulations, including standards such as DO-160, DO-178C, and ARP4754A. The program prepares professionals for roles such as haptic systems engineer, multifunctional integration specialist, validation and certification analyst, as well as technicians in testing and embedded software development for controls
