In this paper, we focused on building a universal haptic texture models library and automatic assignment of haptic texture models to any given surface from the library based on image features. It is shown that a relationship exists between perceived ...
Haptics has proven to be highly beneficial in surgical robotics, bringing enhanced safety and precision by complementing the surgeon's visual channel. However, most of the research body in this context is dedicated to applications involving tradition...
Interacting with physical objects through a tool elicits tactile and kinesthetic sensations that comprise your haptic impression of the object. These cues, however, are largely missing from interactions with virtual objects, yielding an unrealistic u...
Efforts are underway to restore sensorimotor function in amputees and tetraplegic patients using anthropomorphic robotic hands. For this approach to be clinically viable, sensory signals from the hand must be relayed back to the patient. To convey ta...
