Abstract: | With the rapid advancement of the technological revolution, computer technology such as faster processors, advanced graphic
cards, and multi-media systems are becoming more affordable. Haptics technology is a force/tactile feedback technology growing
in disciplines linked to human–computer interaction. Similar to the increasing complexity of silicon-based components, haptics
technology is becoming more advanced. On the other hand, currently available commercial haptics interfaces are expensive,
and their application is mostly dedicated to enormous research projects or systems. However, the trend of the market is forcing
haptic developers to release products for use in conjunction with current keyboards and mice technologies. Haptics allows
a user to touch, fell, manipulate, create, and/or alter simulated three-dimensional objects in a virtual environment. Most
of the existing applications of haptics are dedicated to hone human physical skills such as sensitive hardware repair, medical
procedures, handling hazardous substances, etc. These skills can be trained in a realistic virtual world, and describe human
behavioural patterns in human–computer interaction environments. The measurement of such psychomotor patterns can be used
to verify a person’s identity by assessing unique-to-the-individual behavioural attributes. This paper explores the unique
behaviour exhibited by different users interacting with haptic systems. Through several haptic-based applications, users’
physical attributes output data from the haptic interface for use in the construction of a biometric system.
