Introducing Vibration for use in Interaction Designs to support Human Performance: A Pilot Study
While vibration is a well-used output signal in HCI as part of haptic interaction, vibration outside HCI is used in many other modes to support human performance, from rehabilitation to cognition. In this late breaking work, we present preliminary positive results of a novel protocol that informs how vibration might be used to enrich HCI interventions for aspects of both health and intellectual performance. We also present a novel apparatus specifically designed to help HCI researchers explore different vibration amplitudes and frequencies for such applications.
