Recent Developments and Applications of Haptic Devices

Computer Graphics Forum, 2003
Abstract Over recent years a variety of haptic feedback devices have been developed and are being used in a number of important applications. They range from joysticks used in the entertainment industry to specialised devices used in medical applications.

A Device Independent Haptic Player

2007 IEEE Symposium on Virtual Environments, Human-Computer Interfaces and Measurement Systems, 2007
This paper presents the design, implementation, and quantitative evaluation of a haptic player system that is independent from the haptic device, in the context of our HAML-based authoring tool project at the University of Ottawa. The system comprises three components: a haptic recorder, a feature extractor, and the haptic player.

ActivePaD surface haptic device

2012 IEEE Haptics Symposium (HAPTICS), 2012
We present a new surface haptic interface that combines a variable friction device (the Large Area TPaD) with an impedance controlled planar mechanism. This device configuration is novel because it allows control of the frictional force in the static friction regime, control of the direction of force in the kinetic friction regime, as well as a degree ...

Haptic Device in Endoscopy

2014
Access to organs and tissues is limited during endoscopy. Information about mechanical properties of tissues received during an operation is a key factor for deciding the scale of surgery and further treatment strategy. A new device developed at Lomonosov Moscow State University determines the visco-elastic properties of tissues and presents them in a ...

Proxy-based haptic rendering for underactuated haptic devices

2017 IEEE World Haptics Conference (WHC), 2017
Standard haptic rendering algorithms are not well suited for underactuated haptic devices. They compute forces oblivious of underactuation, and then they simply project the resulting forces to the actuated subspace. We propose instead a proxy-based haptic rendering method that computes displacements in the actuated subspace only, and then translates ...

On utilizing pseudo-haptics for cutaneous fingertip haptic device

2014 IEEE Haptics Symposium (HAPTICS), 2014
In this paper, we explore possible utility of pseudo-haptics for the cutaneous fingertip haptic device, whose performance is inherently limited due to the lack of kinesthetic feedback. We experimentally demonstrate that: 1) pseudo-haptics can render virtual stiffness to be more rigid or softer only by modulating visual cue; 2) pseudo-haptics can be ...

Haptic interfaces and devices

Sensor Review, 2004
Haptic interfaces enable person‐machine communication through touch, and most commonly, in response to user movements. We comment on a distinct property of haptic interfaces, that of providing for simultaneous information exchange between a user and a machine.

CombX: Design of a Haptic Device for Teleoperation

2018 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO), 2018
A haptic device which can provide force and torque outputs is preferred in teleoperation, virtual reality, etc. The dilemma for researchers is that such a haptic device is not easily accessible: the commercial products are expensive to buy, while the state-of-the-art research prototypes are difficult to reproduce outside the original laboratories.
