STRATOS EXPLORE DEVELOPMENT KIT (USX)
Glossary
Glossary
Amplitude Modulation (AM)
Amplitude Modulation (AM) is Ultrahaptics' first-generation
modulation scheme. Haptic focal point positions and
intensity are updated at a frequency defined by the user,
which is used to modulate the ultrasound so that it can
be detected on the skin. AM is particularly well suited to
simple haptic sensations and HMI control applications, and
is available on the TOUCH (UHDK5) development kit, in our
demo suite and in the Sensation Editor.
Time Point Streaming (TPS)
This STRATOS Explore Development Kit supports an
advanced mode of operation for higher performance
applications. TPS allows for a continuously changing signal
to be sent to the Ultrahaptics array at a much higher rate
(up to 40 Hz) than with the AM modulation scheme.
Higher update rates enable the creation of new sensations
and virtual 3D objects and surfaces.
Sensation Editor
TM
The Sensation Editor software tool (download from
developer.ultrahaptics.com) provides Ultrahaptics'
customers with an in-built library of pre-designed
sensations, that can be customised to specific
requirements using a simple editing tool.
