Haptic Horizons: Pioneering the Future of Touch Technology
03 Nov 2023, 16:00 – 20:30
Join us for an immersive soirée dedicated to the fascinating world of haptics. As leaders in haptic research, we have been at the forefront of ground-breaking innovations in this field, spanning the psychophysics of touch, haptic device engineering, applications enriched by touch sensations, and much more.
During this evening:
- Discover the latest advancements and projects undertaken by the vibrant haptics research community in London, the UK and Europe.
- Engage in insightful discussions with leading UCL academics and researchers who are actively shaping the future of haptics.
- Network with industry professionals, fellow researchers, and enthusiasts, and explore potential interdisciplinary collaborations.
Whether you're a haptic expert, industry professional, or simply curious about the tactile wonders of the touch technology, this soirée promises to offer valuable insights and connections.
Come and experience first-hand how we are pushing the boundaries in haptics, and get inspired by the vast opportunities that this technology presents for both scientific and real-world applications.
