The wearable tactile feedback system and its application in the Virtual Reality

Abstract

Virtual reality provides users with an interactable environment based on the real world. In addition, the users can use wearable devices to detect the environmental conditions and project real-world body movement to the virtual world. The development of Virtual Reality highly depends on the hardware devices. In that way, the wearable tactile feedback system is considered as a reasonable choice. The article will mainly focus on three parts about the feedback system. First, how the system works and what kind of sensors and hardware devices are contained in the system will be discussed. How they are connected will be investigated as well. Secondly, three articles about the researches done by others will be introduced, including the sensors' materials, the system's improvement, and the application and future of the system. Finally, the particular application of the system in Virtual Reality will be presented. The research of passage will be greatly valuable for the further study of the wearable tactile feedback system in Virtual Reality.
