Haptic Pulse Simulation for Virtual Palpation

Abstract. In this paper we propose a software-based approach to simulate the haptics of the human pulse. This effect can then be interactively explored by virtual palpation. The algorithm features a flexible, userdefined setup. In addition the simulation takes dynamic parameters into account and allows for many different use cases.
