EuroHaptics

The annually held Eurohaptics conference is a major international conference and the primary European meeting for researchers in the field of human haptic sensing and touch enabled computer applications.
This diverse field covers research in areas including, but not limited to, haptic perception, haptic hardware development, through to end applications and users, such as surgical simulation, rehabilitation robotics, and haptic feedback for design and applied arts applications.

Haptic Symposium

The Symposium on Haptic Interfaces for Virtual Environments and Teleoperator Systems, commonly referred to as the "Haptics Symposium" is a annual conference bringing 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.

WorldHaptics05

After a series of successful conferences and events separately organized in the U.S. and Europe, the Symposium on Haptic Interfaces for Virtual Environments and Teleoperator Systems and the EuroHaptics Conference was held jointly for the first time in 2005 in Pisa, Italy. This has been a great chance to create a truly global community in haptics, capable of answering the challenges, and grab the opportunities, offered by the growing demand of better interfaces to remote and virtual environments.
