Shaping Haptic’s Future
On January 20 2025, The Sense and Vibra Nova organized a collaborative workshop filled with insightful discussions on haptics and its applications. This meeting, centered on innovation, highlighted promising perspectives for the research and development of this groundbreaking technology.
Vibra Nova specializes in advanced haptic technologies. The company stands out by developing ultrasonic solutions that provide precise tactile feedback without direct physical contact. These technologies pave the way for revolutionary applications across various sectors, such as industry, healthcare, and education.
A Meeting conducive to innovation
Matthieu Rupin, CTO and co-founder of Vibra Nova, and Olivier Lorentz, Executive Director of The Sense, shared their enthusiasm for this encounter:
“The idea was to meet The Sense researchers to evaluate the potential of our ultrasonic haptics technology in their work and reflections. The result of these interactions will hopefully lead to one or several research projects given the wealth and quality of topics discussed during this exchange.” — Matthieu Rupin
“Collaborating with SMEs developing new technologies is one of the pillars of The Sense. I look forward to seeing these discussions lead to one or more collaborations between Vibra Nova and The Sense teams.” — Olivier Lorentz
This day highlighted the strong complementarity between the expertise of both entities. Together, they are exploring how ultrasonic haptics, a next-generation tactile feedback technology, can profoundly transform human-machine interactions, enhance learning experiences, and contribute to innovative therapeutic solutions.
