چکیده
The design and control of a 5 degree-of-freedom (DOF) haptic interface that provides accurate rendering of forces as well as a large range of motion is presented. We review a number of design approaches that have been considered in other haptic interfaces and the reasons for choosing a parallel mechanism for our design. The choice and motivation for the actuators, sensors, and materials used are also discussed. High bandwidth transmission of forces is achieved through a force control loop in each degree of freedom. Details of the single actuator control design process and the robustness of the controllers are also overviewed. The resulting interface is able to provide a workspace of about 40 cm in translation in 3 DOF and about 60 degrees in 2 DOF of angular motion , and the force controllers have closed-loop bandwidths of about 175 Hz.

Effects of Physical Bandwidth on Perception of Virtual Gratings
When exploring a virtual environment using a point interaction type force feedback interface, users are forced to adopt a method of ‘temporal encoding’ in order to classify textured surfaces, due to the lack of spatially distributed cues on the fingerpad. Dynamic modelling of haptic interfaces suggests that high spatial frequency information may be attenuated, such that discrimination of stimul...

The most accurate haptic rendition of a virtual model is produced when the haptic algorithm acts directly on the actual model and not an intermediate representation. In the modeling and design communities the de facto model representation standard is NURBS. Further, more powerful systems provide trimming and adjacency information within the models representation. This additional information per...

The performance levels of human subjects in size identification and discrimination experiments in both real and virtual environments are presented. The virtual environments are displayed with a three degree-of-freedom haptic interface, developed at Vanderbilt University. Results indicate that performance of the size identification and discrimination tasks in the virtual environment is comparabl...
متن کاملDisturbance Observer Based Closed Loop Force Control for Haptic Feedback
Most commonly used impedance-type haptic interfaces employ open-loop force control under the assumption of pseudostatic interactions. Advanced force control in such interfaces can increase simulation fidelity through improvement of the transparency of the device, and can further improve robustness. However, closed loop force-feedback is limited both due to the bandwidth limitations of force sen...
