TacTools is a tactile feedback system that easily attaches to any application that requires tactile feedback. It provides the application with the ability to transmit tactile sensations to the user with a controller and tiny (2 mm) tactors. The tactors are individually controlled, and complex tactile patterns can be transmitted through the use of arrays of tactors. Applications of TacTools include the ability to touch objects within virtual worlds, such as playing virtual musical instruments.
