%X Exposing students to touch-enabled computing typically requires the use of expensive Haptic robots. This exhibit demonstrates the adaptation of a commercial, haptically-enabled mouse. Using a customized Linux device driver and a Python imaging script, we allow users to ¡°virtually touch¡± images. Specific examples include exploring the Mona Lisa, digital mammograms, and ¡±touch-traversal¡± of a maze.
