触觉是通过触觉感知的感觉，是基于皮肤的感受器。触摸是普通人群和感官障碍者使用的一种常见媒介。盲人或聋人可以使用触觉替代，以：(A)增加对计算机图形用户界面的访问，(B)增强受控环境中的机动性。皮肤神经可以通过六种类型的受体受到机械、电或热刺激的刺激。振动和压力等方式可以刺激这些感受器。通过几种新技术开发了使用执行装置的触觉通信方面的进展。这些技术包括静态或振动销、聚焦超声、电刺激、表面声波等。本文综述了基于微执行器的触觉图形显示的生理和技术原理、注意事项和特点以及最新实现。我们还回顾了制造技术，以展示触觉应用的潜力和局限性。(C)2007 Elsevier B.V.保留所有权利。
Tactation is the sensation perceived by the sense of touch, and is based on the skin's receptors. Touch is a common medium used by the general population and the sensory impaired. Tactile substitution can be used by the blind or deaf in order to: (a) enhance access to computer graphical user interfaces and (b) enhance mobility in controlled environments.The skin nerves can be stimulated through six types of receptors by mechanical, electrical, or thermal stimuli. Modalities, such as vibration and pressure, can stimulate these receptors. Advances in tactile communication using implementations of the actuating devices have been developed via several new technologies. These technologies include static or vibrating pins, focused ultrasound, electrical stimulation, surface acoustic waves, and other.This paper is a review of the state-of-the-art in the physiological and technological principles, considerations and characteristics, as well as latest implementations of microactuator-based tactile graphic displays. We also review fabrication technologies, in order to demonstrate the potential and limitations in tactile applications. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
