Abstract

Haptics, the science and physiology of the sense of touch, has been investigated in the field of engineering and HCI to provide better computing environments for users. Previous haptic technology being focused was mainly on the PC environments; however, beginning with the i-Phone of Apple recent haptic technology has entered our daily lives. Despite its popularization, the business opportunities the technology will bring have not yet been investigated thoroughly. This research forecasts the application of haptic technology on mobile devices and the consequential business opportunity. Also, the direction of future research in the field of MIS will be proposed.
