Haptic Exploration of Virtual Buildings Using Non-realistic Haptic Rendering
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper argues that the goal of reducing the differences between features within a 3D model and the use of 3D haptic space of the force feedback device is not necessarily desirable. We present the idea of a non-realistic haptic rendering system. We examine in detail the mapping of 3D data structures onto 3D haptic space and show the use of information layers which are based on a logical decomposition of the information space to be presented, rather than a purely geometric decomposition of an underlying geomertic model. As an example for the different techniques we use the virtual reconstruction of the palace of Otto the Great.

A Movement Based Method for Haptic Interaction
An abundance of haptic rendering schemes have been developed to help further presence and immersion in virtual environments. Increasing realism is the main driving force behind this development. Schemes have progressed from simple one-dimensional springs to six degree of freedom particle models, with a wealth of surface and material properties. Because of their relative unimportance, haptic ren...
متن کاملA volumetric approach to virtual simulation of functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
Advanced display technologies have made the virtual exploration of relatively complex models feasible in many applications. Unfortunately, only a few human interfaces allow natural interaction with the environment. Moreover, in surgical applications, such realistic interaction requires real-time rendering of volumetric data-placing an overwhelming performance burden on the system. We report on ...
متن کاملOrientation and Navigation in Virtual Haptic-Only Environments
In this paper we present methods which allow users to orient themselves and navigate through haptic-only environments. The fundamental idea is to use non-realistic haptic rendering to organize and structure the scene into different planes. Based on these planes, we use additional natural language and haptic information to provide the users with help for determining their current position within...
متن کاملHybrid Rendering for Interactive Virtual Scenes
Interactive virtual environments used in conjunction with haptic displays are often staticviewpoint scenes that contain a mixture of static and dynamic virtual objects. The immersive realism of these environments is often limited by the graphical rendering system, typically OpenGL or Direct3D. In order to present more realistic scenes for haptic interaction without requiring additional modeling...

This paper describes an implementation of virtual teeth modeling for a haptic dental simulation. The system allows dental students to practice dental procedures with realistic tactual feelings. The system requires fast and stable haptic rendering and volume modeling techniques working on the virtual tooth. In our implementation, a volumetric implicit surface is used for intuitive shape modifica...
