Homework #4

My main research field includes interactive devices. Here I present three:

Haptic devices. From Greek haptikos ‘able to touch or grasp’. In the context of my research field the haptic devices can transmit haptic feedback of 3d environments on screen. Which means that ables the user to "sense" the virtual environment.




Touch devices: the verb touch comes from Old French tochier, probably from a Romance word of imitative origin; the noun originally from Old French touche, later (in certain senses) directly from the verb. In my research fields touch devices are devices that you can interact directly with your finger, by touching it.





Smart devices. From Old English smeortan (verb), of West Germanic origin; related to German schmerzen ; the adjective is related to the verb, the original sense (late Old English) being ‘causing sharp pain’; from this arose ‘keen, brisk’, whence the current sense of ‘mentally sharp’. In my research field, smart devices are the ones able of doing any kind of processing. If they have processing, they can support games.
