The National Science Foundation awarded a $320,987 Project Grant to Northwestern University for the 3-year period from October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2026. The grant, funded through the NSF's Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070), supports research to develop novel haptic technologies that can create a more realistic sense of touch in virtual environments. The research objectives are to: 1) formulate models of how human skin interacts with...
This four-year, $603,183 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) will support the development of shape-based remote manipulation technologies at Northwestern University. The goals of the research are to overcome limitations in haptic feedback and dexterous control for remote presence systems through innovations in multi-finger haptic interfaces, geometric modeling of grasped objects, and shape-based control...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $321,388 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program to the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (Tees) to conduct research aimed at developing novel haptic technologies to create a more realistic sense of touch in virtual reality interfaces. The research project has three core objectives: (1) develop models of how human skin interacts with textured surfaces during touch; (2) fabricate...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program provides $457,744 to the University of Illinois to conduct a large-scale study examining how prompting learners to gesture during video-based statistics instruction can improve their understanding of statistical concepts and procedural knowledge. The primary objective is to evaluate an approach to designing video learning environments (VLEs) that incorporate instructional gestures and cue...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $300,809 to Saint Louis University to explore the integration of reconfigurable sensorimotor interfaces into educational STEM simulations for digital learning platforms. The goal is to develop low-cost, reconfigurable "teletangible" haptic devices that can be used to embody STEM concepts and support the learning of both sighted students and those with blindness or low...
