ETH Zürich: Manipulating virtual objects in an augmented reality environment ETH Zürich created a visuo-haptic augmented reality system, in which virtual objects can be seen and manipulated in a filmed real world environment. Therefore the researchers at the Computer Vision Lab built a set-up including a position tracking device, a head-mounted camera see-through display and a camera mounted marker, which cover the visual part of the interaction. For the haptic feedback, a virtual probe has been integrated into the set-up, by which the user explores the objects. [read more...] |

| TU München: Mapping the forces of a handshake
Technische Universität München provided a tactile map of forces applied in a human handshake. Two sets of experiments, in which more than one thousand handshakes were recorded with a tactile sensing glove (see article in section on haptic devices), provided the required data. The data has been processed with Matlab, producing frames visualized in kPa units and a section of pressure signal versus time. . [read more...] |

Universidad Politécnica de
The Universidad Politécnica de Madrid developed a multi-body dynamic hand model. At first, a demonstrator of object manipulation has been developed, and second a realistic human hand model has been defined. [read more...] |
