Goal: To study precision manipulation, which involves repositioning an object in the
fingertips and is used in everyday tasks such as writing and key insertion, and also for …

Teleoperation, in which humans and robots work together to improve work performance, is
growing explosively. However, the work performance of teleoperation is not yet excellent …

The Active Handrest is a large workspace assistive robotic device that has been shown to
significantly improve the user performance of various movement tasks. This device has the …

Our lab has developed a haptic feedback device to provide ungrounded tactile feedback
through the motion of actuated sliding plate contactors. Interaction with a virtual environment …

An admittance-type robotic manipulator is a nonbackdrivable device whose motion is
controlled to move in response to a user-applied force, typically with velocity proportional to …

The Active Handrest is a large workspace, human-machine interface that provides
ergonomic support for a user's hand and arm while allowing the user to retain complete …

This study systematically analyses the effects on performance (effectiveness and efficiency)
as well as experience (satisfaction) when using a Posture Assistance Device (PAD) …

The Planar Active Handrest (PAHR) is a large workspace assistive device that improves
user precision manipulation. The PAHR is restricted in its use, because it does not rotate in …

Admittance-type robotic devices are commonly used to complete tasks that require a high
degree of precision and accuracy because they appear nonbackdrivable to many …

Erroneous human arm motion leads to inaccuracy in tool positioning which often affects the
quality of many precision manipulation tasks. Variability in tool endpoints during mechanical …
