Welcome to the official website of the Haptics Symposium (previously known as the Symposium on Haptic Interfaces for Virtual Environments and Teleoperator Systems). This conference brings together researchers in diverse engineering and human science disciplines who are interested in the design, analysis, and evaluation of systems that display haptic (force and touch) information to human operators, and the study of the human systems involved in haptic interaction. Currently, the Haptics Symposium occurs in even years throughout North America (next held in 2010), in cooperation with the WorldHaptics Conference which is held in odd years in rotating international sites. The Haptics Symposium has been co-located with IEEE Virtual Reality in recent years. The proceedings of the Haptics Symposium are published by IEEE.

Upcoming Haptics Symposiums will be held:

2010 Haptics Symposium (with IEEE VR): Waltham, Massachusetts, USA (Boston Area), MA, USA, (March 25-26, 2010)

2011 WorldHaptics
: Istanbul, Turkey, date TBA (likely mid-late March, 2011)


This site also provides general information relavant for haptic researchers and those interested in haptics, including information about related conferences , contact information for haptics research labs , and links to other haptics related sites and publication archives.
