This paper presents a novel human-computer interface that enables the computer display to be perceived without any use of the eyes. Our system works by tracking the user’s head ...
— Haptics, like the fields of robotics and motion control, relies on high stiffness position control of electric motors. Traditionally DC motors are driven by current amplifier...
In this paper, a numerical model of the thermal process of touching an object is described. The model takes into account the object geometry and temperature, the thermal parameter...
We present a novel experimental apparatus for the capture and replay of physical controls (mechanical knobs), as well as a set of acquired models and a design discussion related t...
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...
