PEN

A pen is a writing implement used to apply to a surface, for writing or drawing.

But nowadays pen comes with many interfaces for technology uses.

5 PEN PC

RESEARCH ISSUES Easily misplaced

Need to bring all 5 together.

As the gadget is very costly the consumer cannot afford to purchase them.

The virtual keyboards are already present in various companies like Lumio and VirtualDevices Inc.

HAPTIC

Haptic technology, or haptics, is a tactile feedbacktechnology which recreates the sense of touch by applying forces, vibrations or motions to the user.

Scientist have studied haptics and they know what kind of receptors are in the skin and how nerves shuttle information back.

Haptics can enhance the user experience through:-Improved Usability-Enhanced Realism-Restoration of Mechanical Feel

HAPTIC IN MEDICAL FIELD

Nowadays medical students can use virtual medical training applications, particularly, where it can be used to aid a practitioner to learn and practice a task.

This feedback can then beused to refine the required skills until the operator reaches a target level of

proficiency before commencing training with patients

Example:

SplineGrip is a flexible haptic sculpting tool which senses the articulation and pose of the sculpting hand in eight DOF.

CONSUMES LOT OF

POWER

THE MAJOR DISADVANTAGES

IS PACKS IN SOME NOISE

ADDITIONAL VIBRATIONS CAN ALSO GET A LITTLE BIT UNCOMFORTABLE
