Magazines need haptics ... but do haptics need magazines?

I have mentioned the science of haptics a few times in this blog – basically the sensual feel of a magazine when you handle it. I came across an actual haptics machine, quite by chance; I don't know what it does or how it does it but if you would like to learn more, check out Quanser.com.

Failing that, you know you can rely on Wikipedia, for information about Haptic Technology and, more relevant to our interests, Haptic Communication. However, if you don't always trust the big wiki as a reliable source, then the Electronic Journal of Haptics Research might be more up your street.

On the tube the other day I was overwhelmed by the smell of Cosmo (or some other such journal) and thought 'Now that's some powerful haptics'.
 
Hap(tic)pens all the time.
