When developing sensations using the STRATOS Explore

to periods of 10 minutes continuous output or less.

The STRATOS Explore Development Kit (USX) uses semiconductor
devices that can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). When

Health and safety
We want you to enjoy using the Ultrahaptics STRATOS Explore
Development Kit (USX) safely. Please read the information below carefully
and make sure anyone else using the kit does so before using it to reduce
the risk of electric shock, injury or damage to the kit or other property.
Before you start
•
Read this information and the user instructions in full.
•
If you have a pacemaker, implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD)

Instructions
Every time you use the STRATOS Explore Development Kit (USX):
•
Make sure the STRATOS Explore Development Kit (USX) is placed flat
on a table, is in front of you and there is room to rest your elbow on
the table during use.
•
The Ultrahaptics technology is designed for short bursts of feedback.
Continuous feedback from the Ultrahaptics system, or any other
vibratory feedback system, can lead to a temporary loss of sensitivity
in the frequency range of the feedback. If this happens, take a 10 to
15-minute break. Each person is different, so take longer breaks if
you need to.
•
The haptic feedback is created by a region of high-intensity
ultrasound. Do not target the feedback directly onto your ears or
eyes. We recommend that you do not place your head directly
above the STRATOS Explore Development Kit (USX). We also
recommend allowing for approximately 30cm between your head
and the area of feedback generated by your hand.

symptoms similar to motion sickness.
•
Do not drive, operate machinery or engage in other demanding
activities that have potentially serious consequences until you have
fully recovered from any symptoms.
•
Do not use the STRATOS Explore Development Kit (USX) until all
symptoms have completely subsided for several hours.
•
See a doctor if you have serious and/or persistent symptoms or any
concerns.
