X Abstract

Presents an approach to implementing haptic interfaces in generic virtual reality systems. Typical implementations of virtual environment simulations with haptic rendering conceive the haptic interface intrinsically linked to the virtual scene update. In this framework, the haptic feedback estimation depends on the methods used to simulate the virtual scene and the haptic feedback rate depends on the scene update rate. This dependence ties the development of the simulation system and strongly limits the complexity of simulated scenes due to the high feedback rate (~1 KHz) demanded by a realistic haptic rendering. We propose a new structure to systems having a haptic interface, decoupling the haptic rendering from the virtual environment simulation and introducing a "buffer model" between them. We successfully applied this approach to interface a deformable objects simulator with a Phantom haptic device

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
