The Effect of Stiffness and Curvature on the Haptic Identification of Surfaces
We performed experiments to investigate how humans acquire an internal representation of virtual objects through the execution of reaching movements across the object surface. Sub...

A Behavioral Adaptation Approach to Identifying Visual Dependence of Haptic Perception
Both haptic and visual senses play a role in how we explore our environment. Previous studies have shown that vision plays a very strong role in perception of object stiffness, ye...

Force Feedback is Noticeably Different for Linear versus Nonlinear Elastic Tissue Models
Realistic modeling of the interaction between surgical instruments and human organs has been recognized as a key requirement in the development of high-fidelity surgical simulato...

A Constraint-Based Technique for Haptic Volume Exploration
We present a haptic rendering technique that uses directional constraints to facilitate enhanced exploration modes for volumetric datasets. The algorithm restricts user motion in ...

The Role of Force Feedback in Surgery: Analysis of Blunt Dissection
Force feedback is widely assumed to enhance performance in robotic surgery, but its benefits have not yet been systematically assessed. In this study we examine the effects of for...
