Question by : What is haptic research in terms of robotics?
I get that it has to do with grasping…but thats about all I know. What are applications of work done in haptics?

Best answer:

Answer by sectrix
Haptics is using a computer to communicate a sense of touch. If graphics are a computer communicating visual information, haptics are a computer communicating tactile information.

It is not the same as a a human communicating to a computer a tactile information.

Now think, if we could use computers to communicate physical sensations – how could that be useful?
