Weart technology is a strong example of the introduction of science fiction concepts into real-world projects and design, to produce a potential real-world benefit. Weart develops a technology for touch digitalization allowing users to augment VR/AR or multimedia contents, to enable realistic VR training sessions (medical and industrial) or toenhance instore shopping and e-commerce experiences through tactile sensations. This technology can be used to record and reproduce tactile sensations: forces, vibrations and temperature changes. On one side, it records user’s tactile sensations while interacting with objects surrounding him. Onthe other side, it reproduces these sensations on the user's skin.
