Haptic-based tissue stiffness perception is essential for palpation training system, which can
provide the surgeon haptic cues for improving the diagnostic abilities. However, current …

Haptic rendering enables people to touch, perceive, and manipulate virtual objects in a
virtual environment. Using six cascaded identical hollow disk electromagnets and a small …

We present Omni, a self-contained 3D haptic feedback system that is capable of sensing
and actuating an untethered, passive tool containing only a small embedded permanent …

A lightweight haptic display that does not interfere with the user's natural movement is
required for an immersive haptic experience. This study proposes a lightweight, powerful …

We present magnetic rendering, a new haptic display method applying an electromagnet
array to produce magnetic field in mid-air where the force field can be felt as magnetic …

In this letter, we develop a magnetic localization system for an electromagnetic-based haptic
interface (EHI). Haptic interaction is achieved using a controlled magnetic force applied via …

This paper reports a development of a transparent planar electrostatic actuator, which is
useful for constructing interactive human-computer interfaces on flat panel displays. The …

In this work, we aim to achieve low-cost real-time tracking for nasogastric tube (NGT)
insertion by using a tracking method based on two magnetic sensors. Currently, some …

We have developed a haptic interaction system which wirelessly generates 3D forces onto a
small magnet which can be fixed to a user's fingertip or a handheld stylus. Magnet position …

In this study, we develop an electromagnetic-based haptic interface to provide controlled
magnetic forces to the operator through a wearable haptic device (an orthopedic finger splint …
