(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
Some low-end haptic devices are already common. Joysticks and Game controllers are examples.
One envisioned use of haptics, is for "teledildonics". This used to be though a fanciful notion, not really having any bearing on reality, but recent developments such as the 'cyber glove' indicate that it might not be so strange a notion.
