Haptic Training

Haptic training uses tactile feedback to enhance skill acquisition in various fields, primarily focusing on improving motor learning and surgical training. Current research emphasizes developing affordable and accurate haptic devices, employing active learning algorithms to optimize training data collection, and personalizing training based on individual user characteristics and learning styles. This work is significant because it promises to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of training across diverse applications, from minimally invasive surgery to complex robotic manipulation, by creating more realistic and responsive training environments.
