Download e-book for iPad: Engineering Haptic Devices: A Beginner's Guide by Christian Hatzfeld, Thorsten A. Kern

By Christian Hatzfeld, Thorsten A. Kern

In this enormously remodeled moment version of Engineering Haptic Devices the psychophysic content material has been completely revised and up to date. Chapters on haptic interplay, procedure constructions and layout technique have been rewritten from scratch to incorporate additional simple ideas and up to date findings. New chapters at the review of haptic structures and the layout of 3 exemplary haptic structures from technological know-how and were added.

This e-book was once written for college students and engineers which are confronted with the improvement of a task-specific haptic procedure. it's a reference ebook for the fundamentals of haptic interplay and latest haptic platforms and techniques in addition to a good resource of knowledge for technical questions coming up within the layout strategy of structures and components.

Divided into elements, half 1 comprises commonplace software components of haptic structures and a radical research of haptics as an interplay modality. The function of the person within the layout of haptic structures is mentioned and appropriate layout and improvement levels are defined. half II offers all correct difficulties within the layout of haptic structures together with normal process and keep watch over buildings, kinematic constructions, actuator rules and sensors for strength and kinematic measures. extra chapters learn interfaces and software program improvement for digital truth simulations.

In this case, single instrumental voices are combined to a trio [43] In technical applications, the personal feeling of haptic aesthetics becomes more and more important. Car manufacturers investigate the perceived quality of interfaces [5, 67] to create a touchable brand identity, and there are whole companies claiming to “make percepts measurable” [8] and designers provide toolkits to evaluate characteristics of knobs and switches [45].

1 for details) detect high-frequency vibrations that occur when handling a (stiff) tool. Detection of this high-frequency vibrations allows to identify different surface properties and to detect contact situations and collisions [26]. 3 Touchable Art and Haptic Aesthetics Especially in the twentieth century, art deals with the sense of touch and plays with its meaning. Drastically, the furry cup (see Fig. 2) makes you aware of the significance of haptic texture for the perception of surfaces and surface structures.
