ISO's work on guidance for Haptic and tactile interactions
conference paper
Tactile and haptic interaction is becoming increasingly important and is no longer restricted to assistive technologies and special purpose computing environments. The technology has gone through numerous breakthroughs and replications and is now entering a period of developing empiricism, the phase in which the first benefits of this new development are becoming available. While considerable research exists, the current lack of ergonomic standards results in systems without sufficient concerns for either ergonomics or interoperability, leading to difficulties for users of multiple, incompatible or conflicting applications. ISO (through working group TC159/SC4/WG9) is working toward international standards, which are being dual-tracked as both ISO and CEN standards. This paper gives an update on the status of the Draft International Standard on tactile/haptic interactions and the recently initiated work on a framework for tactile/haptic interactions. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
