Adding sensorial capabilities to the augmented chemical reactions application

This work intends to describe and demonstrate a haptic prototype specifically developed to work with the software application Augmented Chemical Reactions. The main goal of the application and the additional sensorial device is to improve the user immersion in chemistry learning by offering 3D molecules visualization, on a monitor, by using augmented reality technology. The application allows students to manipulate the molecules using patterns for the interface instead of the common mouse and keyboard interface.
