The 3D tele-immersive (3DTI) environments are emerging as the next generation technique for tele-communication. In this paper, we present a novel and generic interface for view co...
The modeling of soft tissue behavior is essential in haptic rendering for virtual reality based medical simulators, which provide a safe and objective medium for training medical ...
This paper presents a method for building analytical contact models for soft fingers. Friction constraints are derived based on general expressions for non-planar contacts of ela...

In this paper, we concentrate on the design of a new whole-sensitive robot arm enabling torque measurement in each joint by means of developed optical torque sensors. When the con...
We are developing a novel sensing device named “3-dimensional capture sheet (3DCS)”. The cloth-like sheet measures its own 3D configuration. The sheet enables us to make a sof...
