STABLE HAPTIC RESPONSE FOR COMPLEX INTERACTIONS

Abstract

Haptic technology is quite recent and therefore in many cases it is difficult to simulate real contacts or interactions with a high sensation of realism. Collision response methods that calculate the force-feedback tend to cause haptic instabilities when the normal direction changes abruptly. In consequence, collision or contact events are often difficult to render properly in sharp corners by means of haptic devices. This paper describes a collision response method which not only provides users with a stable force feedback, but also a comfortable and convincing haptic interaction. The experimental results show that this approach leads to a smoother force evolution which manages to avoid discontinuities and enhances the quality in the interaction with corners.
