LivEdge: Haptic Live Stream Interaction on a Smartphone by Electro-Tactile Sensation Through the Edges

Abstract

We present LivEdge, a novel method for live stream interaction on smartphones utilizing electro-tactile sensation through the edges. LivEdge can convey spatial tactile sensations through electrical stimulations from electrode arrays affixed to both edges of the smartphone. This spatial tactile stimulus represents the streamer's physical presence and movements in contact with the edge of the screen.
