Description of resource:
This article describes a tehcnology which makes it possible for blind and visually impaired students to interact with a virtual object to obtain sensory feedback by using a computer and a haptic force-feedback controller. The results of preliminary research show that computer haptics can provide information through the sense of touch that is comparable to scientific visual information and, as a result, can be a useful tool to teach science.
