增强触觉使用户可以触摸任何形态的表面信息。SmartTouch使用光学传感器收集信息，并通过电刺激将其转化为触觉显示。增强现实是工程师实现这一梦想的途径。在AR中，传感器从世界中捕获人工信息，现有的传感通道将其显示出来。因此，我们实际上获得了传感器作为我们自己的物理能力。增强触觉是将增强现实应用于触觉的结果，它将允许一个人触摸到不可触摸的东西。我们的系统，SmartTouch，使用一个触觉显示器和一个传感器。当传感器接触物体时，电刺激通过触觉显示将获得的信息转换为触觉感觉，如振动或压力。因此，个体不仅与物体进行物理接触，而且还接触到任何形态的表面信息，甚至是那些通常不可接触的信息。
Augmented haptics lets users touch surface information of any modality. SmartTouch uses optical sensors to gather information and electrical stimulation to translate it into tactile display. Augmented reality is an engineer's approach to this dream. In AR, sensors capture artificial information from the world, and existing sensing channels display it. Hence, we virtually acquire the sensor's physical ability as our own. Augmented haptics, the result of applying AR to haptics, would allow a person to touch the untouchable. Our system, SmartTouch, uses a tactile display and a sensor. When the sensor contacts an object, an electrical stimulation translates the acquired information into a tactile sensation, such as a vibration or pressure, through the tactile display. Thus, an individual not only makes physical contact with an object, but also touches the surface information of any modality, even those that are typically untouchable.
