Palpation simulator with stable haptic feedback

open access: yesMinimally Invasive Therapy & Allied Technologies, 2014
The main difficulty in constructing palpation simulators is to compute and to generate stable and realistic haptic feedback without vibration. When a user haptically interacts with highly non-homogeneous soft tissues through a palpation simulator, a sudden change of stiffness in target tissues causes unstable interaction with the object.We propose a ...
