Software Campus: Haptic User Interfaces for Complex Visualizations (VibrAid)

The VibrAid project explores haptic user interfaces for improving perception and interaction with complex visual data. Using vibrotactile feedback, it allows users to "feel" patterns in data visualizations. () Developed under the Software Campus program, it combines HCI, wearable computing, and data visualization.

Investigate how haptic feedback can enhance understanding of complex data. Develop a wearable vibrotactile interface for interactive visualizations. Evaluate user performance and cognitive load compared to purely visual methods.
