We now frequently interface with computers through the use of haptics. From a business standpoint, haptics was only recently applied to driving, a daily activity performed by millions of people.
Recent cars also have buttons installed on the steering wheel, therefore the usage of haptic feedback for operating the car’s operations should not be restricted to the dashboard.
The primary source of haptic information that has been suggested for enabling to control the operations of the car up to this point is tactile feedback at the level of either the dashboard or the steering wheel.
In fact, the conventional interfaces used to manage the functions of the car are typically associated with these two locations (the dashboard and the steering wheel).
The Global Steering Tactile Device Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
The Israeli technology firm Tactile Mobility and steering expert Nexteer Automotive are collaborating on novel software technologies to enhance the driver’s sense of the road.
In order to gain a precise description of vehicle-to-road dynamics, Tactile Mobility developed software that gathers data utilising a vehicle’s built-in, non-visual sensors such as wheel speed, wheel angle, revolutions per minute, and gear position.
The driver’s ability to “feel the road” is enhanced by steering. The input can be very helpful in alerting the driver to potentially dangerous road conditions on ice, gravel, or rutted surfaces, in addition to the performance side of the road connection.
Nexteer has already put a lot of effort into steering feel software tuning. Using the software from Tactile Mobility, it anticipates becoming even better with real-time data collecting on vehicle surroundings.
One of the most important parts of both completely electric and electro-hydraulic Steer-by-Wire (SbW) systems is the Tactile Feedback Device (TFD) steering unit. The Magnetically Responsive (MR) technology used by the LORD TFD allows for extraordinarily smooth steering feel as well as dependable and redundant steering control signals (including CAN functionality).
Throughout its anticipated service life, the LORD TFD steering unit won’t ever need to be inspected or adjusted and is maintenance-free. The TFD also has extremely few moving parts, which considerably improves durability. All of this results in a design that is lightweight, strong, low-power, simple to install, and requires no maintenance.
A new generation of Formula Cube Controls steering wheels is introduced with F-PRO. With its upgraded Formula steering wheel, you now have an unprecedented amount of freedom thanks to its USB+Bluetooth Dual-Mode connection and fully programmable RGB Backlit buttons.
Double joystick, magnetic connectors, specially developed magnetic switchless shifter paddles with adjustable stop ends, ball bearing, and increased tactile feedback are all present. Front plate made of 100% carbon fibre. body made of die-cast aluminium.
To evaluate its exclusive experience that gives survivors direct control over their recovery, Torque3, a firm that combines VR and motion simulation technologies currently targeted for stroke and TBI rehabilitation, announced today the launch of the Alpha Program.
Through tactile feedback from the motion sim base, pedals, and steering arms, Torque3 has developed a virtual environment that closely resembles real-life conditions. The wind on their faces, the G-forces during strong turns, and the scent of the forest or waterfall as they pass can all be felt by survivors.
The multi-modal, fully immersive experience turns “going to treatment” into an exhilarating journey!
