  1. Expanding the Universe of Haptics: A Chat Between David Parisi and Daniel Büttner

    Expanding the Universe of Haptics: A Chat Between David Parisi and Daniel Büttner

    For our second podcast, we have a Zoom discussion from Summer 2020 between our co-founder and CEO, Daniel Buttner, and haptic thought leader, author, and professor, David Parisi. David is the author of the book, "Archaeologies of Touch: Interfacing with Haptics from Electricity to Computing." and also frequently writes about haptics and emerging media in the tech press. In 2020, we also published a thoughtful piece from David on our blog called “Expanding the Universe of Haptics,” which provided a thorough history of haptics and its great promise, but also tackled the dilemma of how haptics has been over-hyped by marketing teams and the press for decades, which has lead to the technology not delivering as predicted. Now, there seems to be a renewed focus and excitement about haptics with tier-1 companies adding them to roadmaps and new products. It’s an exciting time to work in the field. The informal discussion you’re about to listen to is an extension of “Expanding the Universe of Haptics” and you can find a link to the article below. Thanks for listening and enjoy the chat.

    Games, Haptics and Apple: Interview with the “High School Puzzle Master”, Brayden Gogis

    Welcome to The Haptics Podcast, where the Lofelt team explores innovations and developments in the world of haptics, including interviews with thought leaders, developers, creatives and beyond. In this episode, we talked with Brayden Gogis, the 16-year old self-taught coder, writer and designer behind some of the most mind-twisting puzzle games available on the App Store. Currently in high school, Brayden already has an impressive CV: he made his first app at the age of 7, started his own company at 14 (Chain Reaction Games), won a World Wide Developers Conference scholarship at 15, and was recently dubbed the “high school puzzle master” by Apple at just 16 years old. His latest creation, Circulous, made it to the top 3 games in the App Store Puzzle Chart in only a few days, and features some remarkable tactile effects made with Lofelt Studio. We had the immense pleasure to chat with Brayden about coding, haptics, and what to expect next.
