Haptic interactions with stiff virtual surfaces feel more realistic when a short-duration transient is added to the spring force at contact. But how should this event-based transi...
In the expert skill transfer, it takes a great deal of time and effort to obtain new skills for beginners. In particular, it is difficult to teach the skills by using only words....
The tactile detectability of sinusoidal and squarewave virtual texture gratings were measured and analyzed. Using a three-interval one-up three-down adaptive tracking procedure, d...
In this paper, we propose a stretchable large area sensor skin based on Two-Dimensional Signal Transmission (2DST) technology. A small tactile sensor chip with stable non-contact ...
We present some experimental results concerning exploration of planar contours (more specifically, polygons) using a 2–D haptic device, the Logitech Wingman mouse. With respect...
We present a new approach for evaluating a protein’s simulated trajectory via time-based haptic feedback. Molecular-scale trajectories are highly dynamic and thus pose new deman...
We present a fast proximity query algorithm for haptic display of complex deformable models using a layered representation. Assuming that each solid model can be represented as a ...

The objective of this study was to determine whether the weight of a vibrating handheld object influenced the perceived intensity of its vibrations. Experiments were conducted to...

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...
The process which enables virtual objects to mimic their real world counterparts is known as realistic rendering in haptics. Realistic sensations could relate to any spatial featu...
