Broadband Analysis of Collaborative Haptics

Back


This project investigates techniques that will allow an additional human sense, haptic touch to be sent over the Internet. Currently, networks are designed to carry information that stimulates two human senses: the auditory sense (e.g. VoIP) and the visual sense (e.g. video, graphic, text etc). However, the introduction of haptics in the medical field for training purposes has proven the importance of simulating this sense. We are at the dawn of the widespread use of haptic devices in a multitude of application domains. With the introduction of the Falcon haptic interface (Novint™ Technologies) such devices are not a "laboratory specimen" anymore but become a "household appliance."
