This work focuses on the relative importance of skin stretch imposed on the fingerpad on the perception of friction. Perceptual data is presented from two separate tests. The fi...
— This paper presents an initial design and feasibility study for a 1-DOF Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) compatible needle driver robot for radiofrequency ablation (RFA). This ...

— This paper presents a 2D teleoperation task at microscales with force feedback. At this scale, two major problems arise while performing manipulation tasks: the lack of 3D real...
: Conventional laparoscopic tools do not have the ability of providing force feedback to a surgeon during surgical procedures. Loss of haptic feedback in MIS procedures is a disadv...
