Many high-degree-of-freedom haptic devices and teleoperator systems either do not have grippers or do not provide force feedback in the gripper degree of freedom (DOF). The purpos...
—This paper presents a new six DOF haptic device for dental surgery training system, which can provide 6 dimensional virtual force and torque. The proposed haptic device is based...
Abstract— Existing penalty-based haptic rendering approaches compute penetration depth in strictly translational sense and cannot properly take object rotation into account. We a...
We present a new tactile display for rendering rotational friction at the fingertips. To inform the design and control of this device, we have conducted an initial set of percept...
