Belonging to the group of technical VR terms, haptics means the simulation of touch by giving the user the sensation of pressure. Latency represents the time delay between the input of the user and the realization of the action in the virtual world. This is one of the VR terms coined to give a definition to the virtual world.

Haptics? —?The The simulation (or recreation) of sense of touch through the sensations of applying force, vibration, or motion to the user. Haptics be used to assist in the creation of virtual objects in a computer simulation, to control such virtual objects, and to enhance the remote control of machines and devices (telerobotics).
