TM STRATOS Explore Flexible, scalable mid-air haptics development kit Built for research and development, the STRATOS Explore development kit is ideal for exploring how mid-air haptics can enhance innovative products and experiences. Particularly suitable for automotive, appliances/smart home, kiosks, gaming and computing applications. STRATOS Explore tracks users hands using the world-leading Leap Motion Controller, and projects tactile effects onto them using ultrasound. The simplest type of effect is a single pressure point measuring as little as 8.6mm in diameter. With a 40kHz refresh rate, pressure points are then moved very rapidly in 3D space to create a variety of tactile effects in mid-air including: Virtual buttons and sliders, as well as haptic pulses and alerts Immersive sensations such as textures, and presence for virtual objects, surfaces and shapes Magical sensations such as lightning, fireballs, ghosts, clouds, bubbles and force fields Real-world benefits Adding mid-air haptics oers clearff , real-world advantages across a range of sectors, including: Marketing/Advertising: 4.8x average increase in advertisement recall of digital signage when hand tracking and mid-air haptic effects were added. Automotive: >25% reduction in eyes off the road time for gesture control + mid-air haptics infotainment controls, compared to a touchscreen VR: 90% of VR arcade guests would replay an 1 experience with hand tracking and mid-air haptics. Development tools for different workflows Software development kit for C and C++ Unity plugin Plug-and-play demos, including UI controls demos, interactive marketing posters and VR magic spells demo Sensation Editor: tool enabling visualisation of haptic sensations 1 DOOH: Independent study conducted by ERm Research measuring 316 moviegoers response to Shazam at a top-tier multiplex cinema in downtown L.A. The test group walked past interactive haptic digital out-of-home advertising Shazam to get to their movie. The control group walked past static digital out-of-home advertising Shazam .

Automotive: Results from an academic study at the University of Nottingham 2018, The research was a collaboration between Ultrahaptics and Professor Gary Burnett, Dr David R Large and Kyle Harrington of the Human Factors Research Group at the University of Nottingham, UK. These results relate to a slider- bar task.
