This paper describes the theory and implementation of a discrete mechanics model for deformable bodies, incorporating behavior such as motion, collision, deformation etc. The mode...
This paper describes a technique for unwarping encoder ripple in a low cost haptic interface prototype. We previously demonstrated how using a low-resolution optical encoder to el...
The use of CAD in design makes it possible to represent complex components “as manufactured” with a great number of details. A transformation of such models into Finite Elemen...

When designing a vibrotactile information display, it is important to present correct, stable stimulation. However, the mechanical stability of the vibration is affected by many c...
This paper describes the Hapticat , a device we developed to study affect through touch. Though intentionally not highly zoomorphic, the device borrows behaviors from pets and th...
