Neurons make it possible for us to sense touch, process our environment, and store memory. READ MORE

  3. 2. Design, Modeling, and Testing of a Force Feedback Haptic Device for Simulated Robot Interaction

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Patrik Lindström; [2023]
    Keywords : Force Feedback; Impedance Control; PD-gain; Dynamic Behavior; Closed-chain; Master-Slave; Parallel Manipulator; Kinematics Redundancy; Mass-Spring-Damper; Position Control; Current Control; Modeling; Design; Joints; Delta robot; Differential Equations; External Torques; Kinematics; Forward Kinematics; Inverse Kinematics; Dynamic Matrices; Jacobian; URDF; Haptics; Haptic Device; Solidworks; CAD; Maxon Motors; EtherCAT; Beckhoff;

    Abstract : Haptic feedback is a growing phenomenon that incorporates the sense of touch through tactile sensations such as vibrations, electrical signals, air pressure, and sound waves or through force feedback, which employs torques and/or forces to replicate the pressure and weight of a simulated object. Utilizing haptic technology establishes a communication bridge between the user and the technical component, enhancing the user's understanding of the technical component's surroundings. READ MORE
