Physical and behavioral comparison of haptic touchscreens quality

Résumé

Touchscreens equipped with friction modulation can provide rich tactile feedback to their users. To date, there are no standard metrics to properly quantify the benefit brought by haptic feedback. The definition of such metrics is not straightforward since friction modulation technologies can be achieved by either ultrasonic waves or with electroadhesion. In addition, the output depends strongly on the user, both because of the mechanical behavior of the fingertip and personal tactile somatosensory capabilities. This paper proposes a method to evaluate and compare the performance of haptic tablets on an objective scale. The method first defines multiple metrics using physical measurements of friction and latency. The comparison is completed with metrics derived from information theory and based on pointing tasks performed by users. We evaluated the comparison method with two haptic devices, one based on ultrasonic friction modulation and the other based on electroadhesion. This work paves the way toward the definitions of standard specifications for haptic tablets, to establish benchmarks and guidelines for improving surface haptic devices.
