Simulations for training and analysis incorporating haptic feedback are becoming more popular and the sophistication of these simulations is increasing. Many systems now allow a r...
The force-update-rate requirements of transparent rendering of virtual environments are in conflict with the computational cost required for computing complex interactions betwee...
This paper presents our experience towards the conception of a virtual reality medical simulator coupled with haptic interaction aimed at training surgeons. This area of research h...
Force feedback coupled with a real-time physically realistic graphic display provides a human operator with an artificial sense of presence in a virtual environment. Furthermore,...
Soft objects are often desired in applications such as virtual surgery training. Soft object simulations are computationally intensive because object deformation involves numerica...
