Since I could not find a single definition on "teletactile" on the internet I have decided to attempt to create a wiki page about it. I first found the word from reading The Best That Money Can't Buy written by Jacque Fresco. On page 49 he defines it as follows:

"Nanotechnology will eventually control and direct the building of molecular structures, atom by atom, into any molecular configuration we desire. By such a process we will be able to rearrange matter and eliminate shortage forever. With sophisticated technologies like atomic and molecular replication, we might be able to reengineer [the] natural process with advanced robotic manipulators that utilize phase array teletactile communication. “Phase array” is the control and manipulation of light to generate three-dimensional images that appear solid. “Teletactile” is the ability to impart the sensation of solidity and touch to a merely transmitted object. This advanced form of telecommunication will create a virtual simulation one can see, feel, hear, smell, and touch."

Teletactile is also used on page 17 when discussing the future change in language;

"In the future, people using computers could create a language that will provide [a] closer understanding and a simpler structure, with less dependence on speech. For example, a series of signals combining acoustical, optical, olfactory, and teletactile electronic pattern will tell a story in seconds, rather than in many sentences or pages."

Here is a PDF of the book: https://thezeitgeistmovement.se/files/Books/The-Best-That-Money-Cant-Buy.pdf

I would definitely recommend giving it at least a look. It's short but compacted with a lot of insightful anecdotes about the future for humanity.
