The mobile haptic interface is a novel solution for providing haptic sensations in a large virtual environment where a user can walk around. The feasibility of mobile haptic interface has been demonstrated by several research groups, but a number of challenging issues still remain in order to fully integrate a mobile haptic interface into advanced large visual displays. This paper presents a review on the current research status on mobile haptic interfaces and related engineering and evaluation problems. In addition, the design and performance of the mobile haptic interface being developed in the authors' laboratory are described briefly.
