In this paper, we present the design of a new fMRI compatible haptic interface with 3DOFs, based on electrical DC actuation, for the study of brain mechanisms of human motor control. In order to evaluate the validity of the proposed solution, we performed some preliminary experiments with a single degree of freedom device to test the compatibility with the fMRI environment. The 1DOF design was extended...
We describe a wearable haptic feedback device that imparts rotational skin stretch to provide feedback regarding movement of a virtual object. Applications for this device include feedback of motion for physical therapy or rehabilitation exercises or proprioceptive feedback for amputees. The device uses a small piezoelectric motor for a combination of low weight, moderate torques and rotation without...
In order to enable intuitive physical interaction with autonomous robots as well as in collaborative multi-user virtual reality and tele-operation systems a deep understanding of human-human haptic interaction is required. In this paper the effect of haptic interaction in single and dyadic conditions is investigated. Furthermore, an energy-based framework suitable for the analysis of the underlying...
The following topics are dealt with: tactile displays; haptic modelling and rendering; collaboration, dynamics and control; haptic device design; perception; haptically-enhanced applications; telemanipulation and telepresence; human performance; and tactile modeling.
This paper introduces a distributed haptic control architecture that can render direct interaction between users in addition to cooperative manipulation of virtual objects. The proposed architecture integrates remote dynamic proxies and peer-to-peer wave-based communications. Remote dynamic proxies are avatars of users at peer sites with motion governed by second order dynamics laws. They render physically-based...
