A Low-Cost Highly-Portable Tactile Display Based On Shape Memory Alloy Micro-Actuators |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
This paper presents a new concept of low-cost, high-resolution, lightweight, compact and highly-portable tactile display. The prototype consists Of an array of 8 x 8 upward/downward independent moveable pins based on Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) technology. Each actuator is capable of developing a 320 mN pull force at 1.5 Hz bandwidth by using simple forced-air convection. The proposed concept allows the development of 60 g weight tactile devices of compact dimensions easily carried in the users hand. SAM active element, tactile actuator and tactile display are presented and discussed. |
