商品描述
This book is the first resource to provide in-depth coverage on topical areas of assistive, rehabilitative, and health-related applications for haptic (touch-based) technologies. Application topics are grouped into thematic areas spanning haptic devices for sensory impairments, health and well-being, and physical impairments which are illustrated in this book. A diverse group of experts in the field were invited to contribute different chapters to provide complementary and multidisciplinary perspectives. Unlike other books on haptics, which focus on human haptic perception, specific modalities of haptics (e.g., realistic haptic rendering), or broadly cover the subfields of haptics, this book takes an application-oriented approach to present a tour of how the field of haptics has been advanced with respect to important, impactful thematic focuses.
Under Theme 1 “Sensory Impairments”, haptics technologies to support individuals with sensory impairments is presented which includes: Spatial awareness in sensory impairments through touch; Haptically-assisted interfaces for persons with visual impairments; and Enabling learning experiences for visually impaired children by interaction design. Under Theme 2 “Haptics for Health and Well-Being”, haptics technologies aimed at supporting exercise and healthy aging will be covered including: Haptics in rehabilitation, exergames and health; Therapeutic haptics for mental health and well-being; and Applications of haptics in medicine. Under Theme 3 “Haptics for Physical Impairments”, haptics technologies for enhancing the quality of life for individuals with weakened/impaired limbs or neurological diseases impacting movement is targeted including: Assistive soft exoskeletons with pneumatic artificial muscles; Haptics for accessibility in rehabilitative hardware; and intelligent robotics and immersive displays for enhancing haptic interaction in physical rehabilitation environments.
Engineers, scientists, and researchers working in the areas of haptics, multimedia, virtual/augmented/mixed-reality, human-computer interaction, assistive technologies, rehabilitative technologies, healthcare technologies, and/or actuator design will want to purchase this book. Advanced level students and hobbyists interested in haptics will also be interested in this book.

這本書是第一本深入探討觸覺（基於觸摸）技術在輔助、復健和健康相關應用領域的資源。應用主題被分為幾個主題區域，涵蓋了針對感官障礙、健康與福祉以及身體障礙的觸覺設備，這些內容在本書中都有詳細說明。書中邀請了來自該領域的多位專家貢獻不同的章節，以提供互補和多學科的觀點。與其他專注於人類觸覺感知、特定觸覺模式（例如，真實觸覺渲染）或廣泛涵蓋觸覺子領域的書籍不同，本書採取了以應用為導向的方法，展示了觸覺領域在重要且具影響力的主題焦點方面的進展。
在主題一「感官障礙」中，介紹了支持感官障礙人士的觸覺技術，包括：透過觸摸提升感官障礙者的空間意識；為視障人士設計的觸覺輔助介面；以及透過互動設計為視障兒童提供學習體驗。在主題二「健康與福祉的觸覺技術」中，將涵蓋旨在支持運動和健康老化的觸覺技術，包括：復健中的觸覺技術、運動遊戲與健康；針對心理健康和福祉的治療性觸覺技術；以及觸覺在醫學中的應用。在主題三「身體障礙的觸覺技術」中，針對增強因肢體虛弱/受損或影響運動的神經疾病人士的生活品質的觸覺技術，包括：具有氣動人工肌肉的輔助軟性外骨骼；在復健硬體中實現可及性的觸覺技術；以及用於增強身體復健環境中觸覺互動的智能機器人和沉浸式顯示技術。
從事觸覺、多媒體、虛擬/增強/混合現實、人機互動、輔助技術、復健技術、健康科技和/或驅動器設計的工程師、科學家和研究人員都會想要購買這本書。對觸覺感興趣的高級學生和愛好者也會對這本書感興趣。
作者簡介
Troy McDaniel is an Assistant Professor in the Polytechnic School at Arizona State University. He is the Director of the HAPT-X Laboratory and Co-Director of the Center for Cognitive Ubiquitous Computing at ASU. His research interests span the areas of haptic interfaces, wearable robotics, smart cities, human-computer interaction, and machine learning, especially for haptics. He is particularly interested in tactile vision sensory substitution, haptic human augmentation, and multimodal integration. His current research explores how information traditionally presented visually and/or aurally may be presented haptically through novel touch-based interfaces. His current application areas are assistive technologies for individuals with sensory impairments and rehabilitative technologies for individuals with physical impairments. Within these applications, he is exploring new haptic interaction paradigms and novel mappings between modalities to convey information in alternative ways. He is also actively exploring challenges of accessibility and health & well being within Smart Cities and Smart Living application spaces using a citizen-centered approach. He is a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).
Sethuraman "Panch" Panchanathan leads the knowledge enterprise at Arizona State University, which advances research, innovation, strategic partnerships, entrepreneurship, global and economic development at ASU. He is the Director of the Center for Cognitive Ubiquitous Computing at ASU. Panchanathan's research interests are in the areas of human-centered multimedia computing, haptic user interfaces, person-centered tools and ubiquitous computing technologies for enhancing the quality of life for individuals with disabilities, machine learning for multimedia applications, medical image processing, and media processor designs. Panchanathan has published more than 500 papers in refereed journals and conferences and has mentored nearly 150 graduate students, post-docs, research engineers and research scientists who occupy leading positions in academia and industry. He was the editor-in-chief of the IEEE Multimedia Magazine, and is also an editor/associate editor of several international journals and transactions. Panchanathan was appointed by President Barack Obama to the U.S. National Science Board for a six-year term and was appointed by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce to the National Advisory Council on Innovation and Entrepreneurship. Panchanathan is a fellow and Vice President for Strategic Initiatives and Membership of the National Academy of Inventors. In 2018, Panchanathan was appointed Arizona Governor Doug Ducey's Senior Advisor for Science & Technology. Panchanathan is a Fellow of the NAI, American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the Canadian Academy of Engineering (CAE), the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the Society of Optical Engineering (SPIE).
