Abstract:
Systems and methods for generating a tactile representation of an object are provided. A method for generating a tactile representation of an object, comprises obtaining a microscopic image of a surface of the object, processing data corresponding to the image to generate a roughness pattern for the object based on the image, calibrating the roughness pattern with a predetermined material, and simulating the roughness pattern on an electronic device.
