2. 1. Simple haptics : Sketching perspectives for the design of haptic interactions

   Author : Camille Moussette; Daniel Fällman; Bill Buxton; William Verplank; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; interaction design; haptics; haptic interactions; sketching; sketching in hardware; prototypes; prototyping; industrial design; human computer interaction; design research; research through desgin;

   Abstract : Historically, haptics—all different aspects of the sense of touch and its study—has developed around very technical and scientific inquiries. Despite considerable haptic research advances and the obviousness of haptics in everyday life, this modality remains mostly foreign and unfamiliar to designers. READ MORE

4. 2. Touching the Essence of Life : Haptic Virtual Proteins for Learning

   Author : Petter Bivall; Anders Ynnerman; Lena A. E. Tibell; Matthew D. Cooper; Miriam Reiner; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Haptics; Educational Research; Biomolecular Education; Life Science; JND; Just Noticeable Difference; Protein-ligand Docking; Haptic docking; Visualization; Haptic Transfer Functions; Volume Data Haptics; History Dependent Transfer Function; Log file analysis; Molecular Recognition; Force Feedback; Virtual Reality; Other information technology; Övrig informationsteknik;

   Abstract : This dissertation presents research in the development and use of a multi-modal visual and haptic virtual model in higher education. The model, named Chemical Force Feedback (CFF), represents molecular recognition through the example of protein-ligand docking, and enables students to simultaneously see and feel representations of the protein and ligand molecules and their force interactions.

5. 3. Users' haptic product experiences

   Author : Jessica Dagman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; methods and tools; user experiences; product properties; haptics; product development;

   Abstract : The visual aspects have always been of great significance and taken into account in designing consumer products. Other senses have been somewhat neglected as a result of this tradition. This thesis will prove different. READ MORE

6. 4. Design and optimization of parallel haptic devices : Design methodology and experimental evaluation

   Author : Suleman Khan; Kjell Andersson; Jan Wikander; Ölvander Johan; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Medical simulation; 6-DOF haptic devices; design methodology.; SRA - ICT; SRA - Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

   Abstract : The simulation of surgical procedures, in the case of hard tissues such as bone or teeth milling, using a haptic milling surgery simulator requires a haptic device which can provide high stiffness and transparency. To mimic a real milling process of hard tissue, such as for example creating a narrow channel or cavity, the simulator needs to provide force/torque feedback in 5–6 degrees of freedom (DOF).

7. 5. On Trajectory Generation for Robots

   Author : Mahdi Ghazaei; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Haptic Interface; Fixed-Time Point-to-Point Trajectory Generation; Online Trajectory Generation; Dynamic Simulation and Optimization; Dynamics with Varying Contacts; Iterative Learning Control;

   Abstract : A fundamental problem in robotics is the generation of motion for a task. How to translate a task to a set of movements is a non-trivial problem. READ MORE
