This paper addresses the problem of following an arbitrary path with a dissipative passive haptic display. Such a display has energetically passive actuators; all motive energy mu...
We describe a time-domain passivity control methodology that uses programmable eddy current viscous dampers to prevent a user from extracting energy from a haptic interface. A pas...
—The properties of dissipative haptic displays allow larger workspaces that permit a whole body interaction useful for sports, rehabilitation, and large-scale object design appli...
We are investigating actuators that are able to provide different types of haptic sensations and that can be wrapped around a wide range of surfaces and objects. Our first prototy...
Abstract. Physically dissipative damping can increase the range of passive stiffness that can be rendered by a haptic device. Unlike simulated damping it does not introduce noise i...
