Description we have developed new knowledge about how to create and design with ultrasound haptics. we have done pyschophysical studies to understand perception and application oriented work to create interaction technqiues

As of March 2019:
we have continued to publish in the area of this project (due to our new Levitate project). We have had papers in a range of different conferences, for example CHI 2018.
Exploitation Route we have created the foundations for ultrasound based ui's of the future.
Sectors Digital/Communication/Information Technologies (including Software)

Description we have demonstrated the work to many companies. the bristol half of the project have spun off a company. we are currently working on using this in the automotive sector as of March 2019, we have a new project with Huawei using ultrasound actuators to give feedback from mobile phones
