 nse of touch through vibration\, motion\, and forces\, has enormous potent
 ial to make digital experiences more enriching and accessible.\n\n\n\nIn t
 his session\, we will explore the current state of haptics technology and 
 dive into its applications for improving user experiences and accessibilit
 y in various digital contexts. We will also discuss the challenges and opp
 ortunities in integrating haptic technologies into WebApps and Native Apps
 .\n\n\n\nTopics may include:\n\n\n\n- Current status of haptics APIs\, har
 dware capabilities\, and global standardization efforts in this field\;\n\
 n- Experimental exploration in using haptics to convey non-visual informat
 ion/experiences\, such as directional navigation\, notifications\, etc\;\n
 \n- Design considerations for using haptics in a way that works for divers

 proaches about haptic technology and its potential\; 2) discuss opportunit
 ies and challenges in standardizing haptics for Web\, the possibility to o
 ffer a new sensory channel for accessibility\; 3) create a platform for co
 llaboration and communication\, to encourage adoption of the haptic techno
 logies.\n\n\n**Materials:**\n- [slides](https://www.w3.org/2023/07/breakou
