| 88 | | Meghan: haptic feedback on hydrophobic/hydrophilic or ESP? Elaine: need something with a gradient, and also we don't have a full interaction energy calculation (e.g. no VDW/steric component), so it wouldn't be very helpful for manual ligand docking. Maybe fitting atoms into density? TomG: this is just a vibration, not a force, so may not be very helpful/intuitive. |

Scooter: maybe number of contacts/clashes could translate to strength of vibration. Eric: will have to see if the continually updating clashes would slow down VR rendering. |

| | 90 | Darrell: maybe SOW could say "investigate utility of haptics" and maybe it could be part of a paper on pedagogical benefits of VR. Darrell: if some type of haptic feedback is associated with popular VR hardware, more people would have it. Whereas something like Phantom with a more complete haptic interaction is expensive and very few users would have access. |

| | 92 | Scooter: we will work on the writeup and get back to you, hopefully to have time to refine in our meeting next week. |
