Fritschi M. Tactile displays, design and evaluation . Bielefeld: Universität Bielefeld; 2016. ; This thesis presents the design and development of several tactile displays, as well as their eventual integration into a framework of tactile and kinesthetic stimulation. As a basis for the design of novel devices, an extensive survey of existing actuator principles and existing realizations of tactile displays is complemented by neurobiological and psychophysical findings. The work is structured along three main goals: First, novel actuator concepts are explored whose performance can match the challenging capabilities of human tactile perception. Second, novel kinematic concepts for experimental platforms are investigated that target an almost unknown sub-modality of tactile perception: The perception of shear force. Third, a setup for integrated tactile-kinesthetic displays is realized, and a first study on the psychophysical correlation between the tactile and the kinesthetic portion of haptic information is conducted. The developed devices proved to exceed human tactile capabilities and have already been used to learn more about the human tactile sense.
