Haptics: state of the art survey

This paper presents a novel approach to the understanding of Haptic and its related fields where haptics is used extensively like in display systems, communication, different types of haptic devices, and interconnection of haptic displays where virtual environment should feel like equivalent physical systems. There have been escalating research interests on areas relating to haptic modality in recent years, towards multiple fields. However, there seems to be limited studies in determining the various subfields and interfacing and related information on haptic user interfaces and its influence on the fields mentioned. This paper aims to bring forth the theory behind the essence of Haptics and its Subfields like haptic interfaces and its applications
