An initial application would be to simulate a pulse palpation where the trainee doctor or nurse actively searches for a pulse with their fingers to locate an artery within the body. Our first steps towards achieving this aim are summarised below.Category: L.2.II [Haptics]: Haptics Technology Tactile Devices
