Contact in a typical haptic environment resembles the experience of tapping on soft foam, rather than on a hard object. Event-based, high-frequency transient forces must be superi...
Haptic interfaces enable us to interact with virtual objects by sensing our actions and communicating them to a virtual environment. A haptic interface with force feedback capabil...
Second Life (SL) is a virtual world where people interact and socialize through virtual avatars. Avatars behave similarly to their human counterparts in real life and naturally de...
We have developed a new input device that allows users to intuitively specify three-dimensional coordinates in graphics applications. The device consists of a cubeshaped box with ...
Force feedback coupled with visual display allows people to interact intuitively with complex virtual environments. For this synergy of haptics and graphics to flourish, however, ...
