Haptics involves the modality of touch and the sensation of shape and texture an observer feels when virtually 'touching' an object.
The goal of this project is to create a new cyber touch system which will be light, responsive, and inexpensive to produce. There are several haptic glove systems being developed using cables, pneumatic cylinders, etc.[Read More]
A haptic display device is a force output device as well as a point input device in 3-D space. It renders the virtual object tangible and provides an intuitive interface with a virtual environment.[Read More]
In many applications of haptics it will be necessary for users to interact with each other as well as with other objects. We have developed architecture, for haptic collaboration among distributed users.[Read More]
