Design eines interaktiven taktilen Shape Displays mittels Schrittmotoren und dem Bowdenzug-Konzept

This thesis presents the so called reactive Shape display, a tactile display for displaying moving and static two and a half-dimensional shapes, which allows the user to interact. The user interaction takes place by pressing the display pins. For this purpose, a concept is introduced and implemented which decouples the drive mechanically from the tactile element to allow a flexible design in terms of display resolution. The design and implementation generally aime at a technical simple and economical cost-effective solution. It is given an introduction to the concepts of touch, providing the theoretical foundations of touch and the determination of biophysical parameters in this context. Furthermore, improvement and expansion opportunities that resulted from the implementation process are cited.
