This research is focused on the development of a thermal display and understanding the nature of the thermal cues used to identify objects haptically. The objective of the present...
Cobots assist humans by mechanically guiding motion along software-defined paths or surfaces. Cobot design has been extensively studied previously. This paper reports the first sy...

In this paper, we discuss the design and implementation of D’Groove, an intelligent Disc Jockey (DJ) system that features the use of haptic force feedback to expand the expressi...
This paper describes the biomechanical experimental validation of simulating side slope during walking on a treadmill style locomotion interface. The side slope effect is achieved...

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...
This paper proposes a new method for real-time rigid body simulations based on a volumetric penalty method. The penalty method, which employs spring-damper model, is a simple and ...
Virtual reality technology is reported that the use of virtual reality(VR) as an educational tool can increase student interests, understanding and creative learning because of en...
