Mouth Haptics

Open source code for Mouth Haptics in VR using a Heaset Ultrasound Phased Array . This paper was published in and received Best Paper Award at CHI 2022. Contact me with questions here!

Repository Contents

  • PCB_files: contains the PCB files for the paper prototype and future work iterations.
  • simulator: all of the Unity code for MouthHaptics

Assembly Instructions

Bill of Materials

Step 1: Assemble driver board

Assemble the Ultraino driver board following these instructions

Step 2: Assemble the Ultrasound array

  • First, determine the polarity of every transducer. You can do this with an oscilloscope + function generator or a multimeter.
  • Solder the female MOLEX connectors onto the PCB. You can use any combination of normal/right angle MOLEX connector.
  • Create ribbon cables with two male MOLEX ends, to connect the two PCBs.
  • Insert all transducers into the holes - solder to attach. Make sure the transducers are all the same polarity in the same direction.
  • Connect all the ribbon cablues between the driver board and the array.

Step 3: Set up Unity Software

Clone (or Fork!) this repository

git clone https://github.com/FIGLAB/IMUPoser.git

Once you have the Unity hub installed, you should be able to open the simulator unity project. The demos are all in the Scenes folder.
