    (Association for Computing MachineryNew YorkNYUnited States, 2020) BENBELKACEM, Samir; ZENATI-HENDA, Nadia; BENTALEB, Ahmed; AOUAM, Djamel; OTMANE, Samir
    We propose the concept of “ Tactile Internet ” ( Tac-I ) that will be the next evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT). It enables sharing experiences of others with the sense of touch. In our case, Tac-I al- lows to multicast vibrotactile sensations from one node to multiple nodes via Internet. We developed vibrotactile shared devices which are physical bracelets connected between them through Cloud plat- form. We use the WebRTC as communication protocol to exchange data between tactile bracelets. Users can access Tac-I Web using a smartphone or Tablet and experience the vibrotactile sensation by manipulating virtual objects in a virtual reality environment from a Web browser. Multiple vibrotactile bracelets would be connected to the Cloud and transmit the tactile information from one node to another one or to multiple ones.
