ELECTROACTIVE POLYMER ACTUATORS AND FEEDBACK SYSTEM THEREFOR

摘要

Various apparatus and methods: are disclosed to: provide haptic feedback, A method and apparatus are disclosed: for biometric priming of closed-loop haptic feedback. Also disclosed are various mechanisms for vibrotactile feedback in a wearable system using electroactive polymers. Also disclosed, are a method and apparatus for adapting to resonant frequency shifts m a haptic device. Various aspects of wearable dielectric elastomer actuator(s) with compliant conductive shields and ground fault circuit interrupt circuit breaker therefor are also disclosed, An array of deformable surface actuators to provide force feedback upon touching a surface of a display/touch sensor to confirm action is also disclosed.
