Automatic Generation of Vibrotactile Effects

Abstract: 

Creating haptic effects that are well synchronized with visual-audio content is not a trivial task, requiring good software tools and significant man hours. One promising approach to alleviate this problem is to provide algorithms that can automatically synthesize haptic effects by extracting important features from existing visual-audio content.
