Haptic devices can be used to visualize information. As well as representing tangible surfaces and forces to enhance virtual training simulators for instance, haptic devices have ...
Exploring large virtual environments using a small haptic device with limited-workspace capabilities is a challenging task because the user very quickly reaches the borders of the...
The Maxima Haptics Package is a free software package for symbolic analysis of linear models of haptic devices and teleoperators. From a mechanical model of the haptic device, the...
We describe key affordances required by tools for developing haptic behaviors. Haptic icon design involves the envisioning, expression and iterative modification of haptic behavio...
