Animation of viscoelastic solids in entertainment and medical applications as well as scientific simulation can be improved through observations of real world objects. This paper ...
It is necessary to ascertain texture perception of humans in developing tactile devices that create or detect lifelike texture. In this paper, the relationship between object surf...
Simplified soft tissue models used in surgical simulations cannot perfectly reproduce all material behaviors. In particular, many tissues exhibit the Poynting effect, which resul...
Abstract. The shape recognition of an object is important for dexterous manipulation by humans. Therefore, we have developed a haptic display that integrates both electrotactile an...
