Description The bHaptics TactSleeve is a pair of wearable haptic sleeves for the forearms that translate digital signals into localized vibration feedback. Each sleeve contains multiple actuators that can be triggered individually or in patterns, enabling directional and intensity-based cues for interaction, training, or experimentation. In the lab, it functions as a tactile output channel, allowing sensor data, system events, or media to be rendered directly onto the body for embodied perception and feedback.
