CISE Research Resources: Acquisition of A Haptic Device

EIA 02-24423PI(s): Xiao, Jing Tolone, William j .机构：北卡罗来纳大学-夏洛特分校标题：CISE RR：触觉设备的获取该提案，获取一个可以向用户显示全部力和扭矩反馈的PHANTOM触觉设备，旨在支持两个触觉研究项目，这些项目受到虚拟装配、虚拟原型、远程协作和远程操作等应用的启发。以下项目将受益于该仪器：复杂接触状态和柔顺运动的触觉渲染和协作虚拟对象操作。前者关注的是如何以高保真度和实时的方式模拟和渲染人类操作员在虚拟环境中手动组装过程中由于他/她持有的部件和其他部件的接触而感受到的效果。该装置将使人类操作员能够感受到碰撞和反作用力和扭矩，以测试模拟的质量和保真度。后一个项目是关于如何通过触觉设备在虚拟世界中以高保真度和实时性模拟物理对象的协作操作过程。当设备显示出全部的力和扭矩时，协作各方可以获得必要的线索进行有效的协调。该项目为pi之间的跨学科合作提供了机会。

EIA 02-24423PI(s): Xiao, Jing Tolone, William J.Institution: University of North Carolina - Charlotte Title: CISE RR: Acquisition of a Haptic Device This proposal, acquiring a PHANTOM haptic device that can display full force and torque feedback to the user, aims at supporting two haptic research projects inspired by applications such as virtual assembly, virtual prototyping, remote collaboration, and teleoperation. The following projects will benefit from the instrumentation:Haptic Rendering of Complex Contact States and Compliant Motion and Cooperative Virtual Object Manipulation. The former is concerned with how to simulate and render, with high fidelity and in real time, the effect felt by a human operator due to the contacts involving the part he/she holds and other parts during manual assembly in a virtual environment. The device will enable a human operator to feel the resulted collision and reaction forces and torques to test the quality and fidelity of simulation. The latter project is concerned with how to simulate, again with high fidelity and real time, the cooperative manipulation process of physical objects in a virtual world via haptic devices. With full force and torque display from the device, the collaborative parties can obtain the necessary cues for effective coordination. This project provides the opportunity for cross-discipline collaboration between the PIs.
