Download or read book Making Sense of Haptics written by Femke Elise van Beek and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tele operation systems, in which robots are controlled remotely, are a potential solution to performing tasks in remote, small, and hazardous environments. However, there is a big disadvantage to these systems; as the direct connection between the human and the environment is lost and operators are deprived of their sense of touch. The recreation of touch feedback through haptic devices is a possible solution, however haptic devices are far from perfect and improving their design is usually a slow trial-and-error process. This book describes 7 scientific studies that try to break this slow loop by using a deductive approach. Through investigating fundamental properties of human haptic perception using psychophysical paradigms, general knowledge on haptic perception of force, position, movement and hardness was gained. The resulting information can be applied to many different haptic devices. Consequently haptic systems can be more easily designed in an intuitive, human-centered way.

Download or read book Engineering Haptic Devices written by Thorsten A. Kern and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-07-28 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tactile perception and haptics are essential for us, as we gain information about structures and surface properties of physical objects by using the sense of touch. Haptics also enables us to manipulate the physical world. The emphasis of this book is put on technologies for artificially deceiving our haptic perception. First, examples and a definition of haptics from a physiological point of view are given. Thereby, one focus is on cases of loss of haptics in everyday professional routine, in order to emphasize the impact of haptics. Then, an overview of products with extraordinary haptic properties leads to a more precise terminology. In the second part of the book, concrete technical aspects of haptic manipulation and manipulators are considered beginning with higher-level subjects like control and kinematics and proceeding with a detailed discussion of actuators and sensors and the interfaces to and from the mechanical environment. In the final chapter fundamental software engineering is introduced, including haptic interaction in virtual reality simulations. "Engineering Haptic Devices" is intended to be a reference book for technologies of haptic relevance as well as a textbook on methods of haptic engineering and applications.It is addressed to students and professionals of engineering disciplines or natural sciences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das wichtigste Werkzeug des Menschen sind seine Hande. Obwohl dieses Sprichwort schon sehr alt ist, ist nur wenig daruber bekannt, wie und was der Mensch wahrnimmt, wenn er Objekte in die Hand nimmt und betastet. Wie wird die ertastete Form eines Objektes im Gehirn abgespeichert? Ist die haptische Reprasentation ahnlich zu der, der visuellen Wahrnehmung? Entsteht sogar eine multisensorische, und somit gemeinsame, Reprasentation? Diese fundamentalen Fragen bilden den Hintergrund der vorliegenden Dissertation. Die hier dargestellten Experimente zeigen, dass der Mensch sehr ahnliche perzeptuelle Raume generiert, wenn komplexe Formen eines parametrisch definierten Objektraumes visuell oder haptisch exploriert werden. Um dies zu zeigen, wurde zuerst ein dreidimensionaler Objektraum muschelahnlicher Objekte generiert, welche in drei Formparametern variieren. Versuchspersonen wurden in den visuellen Versuchen Fotos oder virtuelle Rekonstruktionen der Objekte gezeigt, wahrend in den haptischen Versuchen 3D Plastikmodelle der Objekte, generiert mit einem 3D Drucker, mit verbundenen Augen betastet wurden. In einer ersten Reihe von Experimenten bewerteten die Versuchspersonen die Ahnlichkeit zweier, nacheinander gezeigter, Objekte. Mit diesen Ahnlichkeitsbewertungen und mit Hilfe des Verfahrens der multidimensionalen Skalierung wurden die perzeptuellen Raume beider Modalitaten visualisiert. Uberraschenderweise konnten die Versuchspersonen die Topologie des Objektraumes korrekt nachbilden, unabhangig davon, ob sie die Objekte gesehen oder betastet hatten. Weiterhin zeigten die Ergebnisse, dass der visuelle und der haptische perzeptuelle Raum fast identisch waren. Als nachstes wurden drei Kategorisierungsexperimente durchgefuhrt. Obwohl Kategorisierung allein durch den Tastsinn eher eine ungewohnliche Aufgabe ist, konnte sie genauso gut gelost werden, wie wenn die Versuchspersonen die Objekte sehen konnten. Anschliessend wurden die perzeptuellen Raume beider Modalitaten mit den Ergebnissen der Kategorisierungsexperimente verglichen. Fur alle Kategorisierungsexperimente und fur beide Modalitaten war die wahrgenommene Ahnlichkeit zwischen Objekten einer Kategorie hoher, als die Ahnlichkeit zweier Objekte aus unterschiedlichen Kategorien. Das heisst, dass, sowohl visuell als auch haptisch, Objekte in einer Kategorie zusammengruppiert wurden, die als sehr ahnlich wahrgenommen wurden.Um zu untersuchen, inwieweit die auf den computergenerierten Objekten basierenden Ergebnisse auf naturliche Objekte ubertragbar sind, wurde eine Sammlung von Muscheln und Salzwasserschnecken erstellt. Mit diesen wurden, wie oben beschrieben, Ahnlichkeitsbewertungen durchgefuhrt und mittels multidimensionaler Skalierung die perzeptuellen Raume visualisiert. Wiederum waren der visuelle und der haptische perzeptuelle Raum fast identisch. Interessanterweise konnte man in beiden Raumen eine Gruppenbildung erkennen, weshalb auch hier drei Kategorisierungsexperimente durchgefuhrt wurden. Obwohl die Muscheln in einer Vielzahl an Objektmerkmalen variierten, z.B. Form, Farbe, Muster etc., konnten die Versuchspersonen diese Aufgabe ohne Muhe losen, auch wenn sie die Objekte nur betasten durften. Zusatzlich konnte die Gruppenbildung, die schon in den perzeptuellen Raumen erkennbar war, die Kategorisierungsergebnisse richtig vorhersagen.Zusammengenommen weisen diese Ergebnisse darauf hin, dass die visuelle und die haptische Reprasentation von Objekten sehr eng miteinander verknupft sein mussen. Zusatzlich liefern die Experimente Hinweise darauf, dass die gleichen Prozesse genutzt werden, wenn Ahnlichkeiten zwischen Objekten wahrgenommen werden, oder Objekte kategorisiert werden, egal ob die Objekte visuell oder haptisch exploriert werden.

Download or read book Advances in Haptics written by Mehrdad Hosseini Zadeh and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 734 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haptic interfaces are divided into two main categories: force feedback and tactile. Force feedback interfaces are used to explore and modify remote/virtual objects in three physical dimensions in applications including computer-aided design, computer-assisted surgery, and computer-aided assembly. Tactile interfaces deal with surface properties such as roughness, smoothness, and temperature. Haptic research is intrinsically multi-disciplinary, incorporating computer science/engineering, control, robotics, psychophysics, and human motor control. By extending the scope of research in haptics, advances can be achieved in existing applications such as computer-aided design (CAD), tele-surgery, rehabilitation, scientific visualization, robot-assisted surgery, authentication, and graphical user interfaces (GUI), to name a few. Advances in Haptics presents a number of recent contributions to the field of haptics. Authors from around the world present the results of their research on various issues in the field of haptics.
