Abstract
The primary goals of this paper are to design an interactive education platform conveying a variety of haptic sensations to developmental disorder children when they touch the education platform. The proposed interactive education platform is composed of a kinesthetic module, a vibrotactile module, a thermal module. and a controller. The design focuses of the proposed education platform were to create sufficiently large kinesthetic forces, vibrations, and temperatures and to convey them to users. We have conducted experiments for evaluating the proposed system and found out three modules function safely and effectively as an educational platform.
