Haptic Feedback: A Potted History, From Telepresence to Virtual Reality
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents a short review of the history surrounding the development of haptic feedback systems, from early manipulators and telerobots, used in the nuclear and subsea industries, to today’s impressive desktop devices, used to support real-time interaction with 3D visual simulations, or Virtual Reality. Four examples of recent VR projects are described, illustrating the use of haptic feedback in ceramics, aerospace, surgical and defence applications. These examples serve to illustrate the premise that haptic feedback systems have evolved much faster than their visual display counterparts and are, today, delivering impressive peripheral devices that are truly usable by non-specialist users of computing technology.

Adding haptic feedback to virtual reality simulations and telepresence applications increases immersion to human users. As for some applications the use of forcefeedback devices is impracticable or not sufficient, tactile devices can be utilized as alternative or as supplement. This work investigates two new tactile devices, which use different technologies for generating tactile feedback. Thes...
متن کاملExtended Range Telepresence for Evacuation Training in Pedestrian Simulations
In this contribution, we propose a new framework to evaluate pedestrian simulations by using Extended Range Telepresence. Telepresence is used as a virtual reality walking simulator, which provides the user with a realistic impression of being present and walking in a virtual environment that is much larger than the real physical environment, in which the user actually walks. The validation of ...
