This site contains information on a variety of different haptic authoring tools (HATs), ranging from SDKs to complete interactive environments. While most support designing for and controlling vibrotactile devices, some tools do include support for force feedback, skin stretch or compression, and temperature control.
{{site.title}} is intended to provide high-level information on a large number of these haptic authoring tools to aid in searching for and making comparisons between them. By compiling information from a variety of sources and creating a high-level taxonomy to aid in describing, comparing, and filtering tools, {{site.title}} aims to be of use in searching for tools and creating new ones. This project also provides a place for these creators to archive and link to information on their work so it can be more easily located, even after active development of a tool has ended.
More information about {{site.title}} and its goals can be found on the [FAQ page]({{ site.baseurl }}/docs/faq.html).
To see the current list of entries, go to the [Tools page]({{ site.baseurl }}/tools/) or use the search bar.
For more information about the taxonomy, please consult the [Tool Information page]({{ site.baseurl }}/docs/information.html).
