…and the effectiveness of haptic devices in communicating commands. They’re also investigating how American Sign Language will be impacted by microgravity. When it comes to the physiology of microgravity and understanding how the human body is affected, Viirre has a wealth of information and experience. This wasn’t his first flight…

…Student tests a novel haptic glove using soft robotics concepts now in development at UC San Diego. In 2015, Schulze applied for a grant from the campus-wide Integrated Digital Infrastructure (IDI) program, which earmarked funds for technologies to support the university’s teaching mission. IDI provided $20,000 to purchase computers and…
