Haptic rendering allows users to" feel" virtual objects in a simulated environment. We survey
current haptic systems and discuss some basic haptic-rendering algorithms. In the past …

A manual for both designers and users, comprehensively presenting the current state of
experts' knowledge on virtual reality (VR) in computer science, mechanics, optics, acoustics …

Force feedback coupled with visual display allows people to interact intuitively with complex
virtual environments. For this synergy of haptics and graphics to flourish, however, haptic …

The Virtual-Reality Peripheral Network (VRPN) system provides a device-independent and
network-transparent interface to virtual-reality peripherals. VRPN's application of factoring by …

A simple, fast, and approximate voxel-based approach to 6-DOF haptic rendering is
presented. It can reliably sustain a 1000 Hz haptic refresh rate without resorting to …

Accurate measurements and degradation mechanisms of the channel mobility for MOSFETs
with HfO/sub 2/as the gate dielectric have been systematically studied in this paper. The …

Integrating force feedback with a complete real-time virtual environment system presents
problems which are more difficult than those encountered in building simpler forcefeedback …

The goal of haptic rendering is to enable a user to touch, feel, and manipulate virtual objects
through a haptic interface. With the introduction of high-fidelity haptic devices (see chap. 5 …

Computer haptics, an emerging field of research that is analogous to computer graphics, is
concerned with the generation and rendering of haptic virtual objects. In this paper, we …

Data visualization is a technique used to explore real or simulated data by representing it in
a form more suitable for comprehension. This form is usually visual since vision provides a …
