Claim 0:
1. A method for enabling haptic feedback for objects in an augmented reality system, the method comprising:
detecting a position of a first touch point at which a user is touching a proxy surface, the proxy surface being associated with a physical or virtual three-dimensional (3D) object;
mapping the first touch point to a first corresponding point on the 3D object by using a stored mapping of coordinates of points on the proxy surface and corresponding coordinates of points on the surface of the 3D object;
determining a first position of an augmented hand such that the augmented hand is in alignment with the first corresponding point on the 3D object; and
displaying the augmented hand at the first determined position on an augmented reality display.
