Isotropy and Actuator Optimization in Haptic Interface Design
A haptic interface controlled in impedance mode should present its user with a uniform force capability matching the human hand. This paper reviews a mechanism design methodology that maximizes a workspace-inclusive isotropy index. Force maximization in coreless or voice-coil motors is also considered in order to maximize haptic interface acceleration. Example designs of a planar 3-DOF haptic mouse, a 5-DOF haptic pen and a MagLev joystick are presented.
