This paper describes real-time volumetric haptic and visual algorithms developed to simulate burrhole creation for a Virtual Realitybased craniotomy surgical simulator. A modifie...
Abstract. The Nine Hole Peg Test (NHPT) is routinely used in clinical environments to evaluate a patient's fine hand control. A physician measures the total time required to i...
Abstract. A novel interactive virtual needle insertion simulation is presented. The insertion model simulates three-degree-of-freedom needle motion, physically-based needle forces,...
While standard closed haptic control loop used in haptic simulation of rigid bodies are bounded to low frequency force restitution, event-based or open-loop haptic, by superimposin...
This paper presents our preliminary research on haptic displays integrated in floor surfaces. We emphasize potential roles for the latter as vibrotactile communication channels t...
