A newly designed haptic interface enables an operator to control a remote robot precisely. It transmits position information to the remote robot and feeds back the interaction force from it. A control algorithm of haptic interface has been studied to improve the robustness and stability to uncertain dynamic environments with a proposed contact dynamic model that incorporates human hand dynamics. A simplified hybrid parallel robot dynamic model fur a 6 DOF haptic device was proposed to from a real time control system, which does not include nonlinear components. LQC/LTR scheme was adopted in this paper for the compensation of un-modeled dynamics. The recovery of the farce from the remote robot at the haptic interface was demonstrated through the experiments.

This paper proposes a nonlinear virtual coupling fur haptic interface, which offers better performance while maintaining stability of the system. The nonlinear virtual coupling is designed based on a human response model. This human response model exploits delay between the human Intention and the actual change of arm impedance. The proposed approach provides with less conservative constraints for the design of stable haptic interface, compared with the traditional passivity condition. This allows increased performance that is verified through experiments.

This paper introduces a novel control algorithm, energy bounding algorithm, for stable haptic interaction. The energy bounding algorithm restricts energy generated by zero-order hold within consumable energy by physical damping that is energy consumption element in the haptic interface. The passivity condition can always be guaranteed by the energy bounding algorithm. The virtual coupling algorithm restricts the actuator force with respect to the penetration depth and restricts generated energy. In contrast, energy bounding algorithm restricts the change of actuator force with respect to time and restricts generated energy by zero-order hold. Therefore, much stiffer contact simulation can be implemented by the energy bounding algorithm. Moreover, the energy bounding algorithm doesn’t is not computationally intensive and the implementation of it is very simple.

This paper presents a real-time haptic rendering method for multi-contact interaction with virtual environments. Haptic systems often employ physics-based deformation models such as finite-element models and mass-spring models which demand heavy computational overhead. The haptic system can be designed to have two sampling times, T and JT, for the haptic loop and the graphic loop, respectively. A multi-rate output-estimation with an exponential forgetting factor is proposed to implement real-time haptic rendering for the haptic systems with two sampling rates. The computational burden of the output-estimation increases rapidly as the number of contact points increases. To reduce the computation of the estimation, the multi-rate output-estimation with reduced parameters is developed in this paper. Performance of the new output-estimation with reduced parameters is compared with the original output-estimation with full parameters and an exponential forgetting factor. Estimated outputs are computed from the estimated input-output model at a high rate, and trace the analytical outputs computed from the deformation model. The performance is demonstrated by simulation with a linear tensor-mass model.

Teleoperation enables an operator to manipulate remote objects. One of the main goals in teleoperation researches is to provide the operator with the fueling of the telepresence, being present at the remote site. For these purposes, a master robot must be designed as a bilateral control system that can transmit position/force information to a slave robot and feedback the interaction force. A newly proposed impedance algorithm is applied for the control of a haptic interface that was developed as a master robot. With the movements of the haptic interface for position/force commands, impedance parameters are always varying. When the impedance parameters between an operator and the haptic interface and the dynamic model are known precisely, many model based control theories and methods can be used to control the device accurately. However, due to the parameters'variations and the uncertainty of the dynamic model, it is difficult to control haptic interfaces precisely. This paper presents a robust adaptive impedance control algorithm for haptic interfaces.

본 논문은 에너지 바운딩 알고리즘 (EBA: Energy Bounding Algorithm) 기반의 힘 반향 원격 제어 시스템의 투명성을 분석하고 이를 기반한 네트워크 적응형 전송기법을 제안한다. EBA 는 양방향 원격 조작의 안정성을 확보하는 알고리즘으로 시간지연의 크기와 변동 및 손실에 상관없이 양방향 원격 조작의 안정성을 보장한다. 하지만 네트워크 지연 및 손실에 의한 투명성 저하는 EBA 로 극복하기에는 한계가 있다. 따라서 효과적인 전송기법을 이용하여 투명성을 향상시킬 필요가 있다. 제안하는 투명성 분석은 네트워크 지연 및 손실에 따른 힘 피드백의 왜곡 현상을 수식화한다. 이를 기반으로 촉감 데이터 동기화 기법 및 전송률 제어 기법의 투명성을 향상시킨다. 조작자가 요구하는 투명성 요구 조건과 현재 네트워크 상황에 맞추어 투명한 촉감 상호작용을 위한 동기화 지연 시간과 전송되어야 하는 촉감데이터량을 결정한다. Matlab 시뮬레이션을 통해서 제안한 투명성 분석의 타당성을 검증하고 촉감데이터 동기화 기법 및 전송률 제어 기법의 투명성을 확인한다.

Realistic Modeling is to maximize the reality of the environment in which perception is made by virtual environment or remote control using two or more senses of human. Especially, the field of haptic rendering, which provides reality through interaction of visual and tactual sense in realistic model, has brought attention. Haptic rendering calculates the force caused by model deformation during interaction with a virtual model and returns it to the user. Deformable model in the haptic rendering has more complexity than a rigid body because the deformation is calculated inside as well as the outside the model. For this model, Gibson suggested the 3D ChainMail algorithm using volumetric data. However, in case of the deformable model with non-homogeneous materials, there were some discordances between visual and tactual sense information when calculating the force-feedback in real time. Therefore, we propose an algorithm for the Volume Haptic Rendering of non-homogeneous deformable object that reflects the force-feedback consistently in real time, depending on visual information (the amount of deformation), without any post-processing.

In this work, we present interactive automultiscopic content with mobile surface haptics for multimodal interaction. Our system consists of a 40-view automultiscopic display and a tablet supporting surface haptics in an immersive room. Animated graphics are projected onto the walls of the room. The 40-view automultiscopic display is placed at the center of the front wall. The haptic tablet is installed at the mobile station to enable the user to interact with the tablet. The 40-view real-time rendering and multiplexing technology is applied by establishing virtual cameras in the convergence layout. Surface haptics rendering is synchronized with three-dimensional (3D) objects on the display for real-time haptic interaction. We conduct an experiment to evaluate user experiences of the proposed system. The results demonstrate that the system's multimodal interaction provides positive user experiences of immersion, control, user interface intuitiveness, and 3D effects.

A haptic device operated by the user's hand can receive information on position and orientation of the hand and display force and moment generated in the virtual environment to the hand. For realistic haptic display, the detailed information on collision between objects is necessary. In the past, the point-based graphic environment has been used in which the end effector of a haptic device was represented as a point and the interaction of this point with the virtual environment was investigated. In this paper, the shape-based graphic environment is proposed in which the interaction of the shape with the environment is considered to analyze collision or contact more accurately. To this end. the so-called Gilbert-Johnson-Keerthi (GJK) algorithm is adopted to compute collision points and collision instants between two shapes in the 3-D space. The 5- DOF haptic hand controller is used with the GJK algorithm to demonstrate a peg-in-hole operation in the virtual environment in conjunction with a haptic device. It is shown from various experiments that the shape-based representation with the GJK algorithm can provide more realistic haptic display for peg-in-hole operations.

3D/가상환경 애플리케이션을 위한 3D 인터랙션에 관한 연구는 이동(navigation), 선택(selection), 조작 (manipulation), 시스템 제어(system control)와 같은 기본적인 4가지 형태의 상호작용으로 정의하고 광범위하게 연구되어 왔으며, 일반적으로 현실세계나 가상환경에서 작은 물체라도 상호작용하기에 적합한 기술로 여겨져 왔다. 그러나 이러한 비직관적인 상호작용 방법은 최근 산업계에서 필요시 되고 있는 가상 훈련이나 가상 디자인/사용성 평가 시스템과 같이 사용자가 도구나 장치를 사용하여 간접적으로 물체를 조작해야 하는 비직관적인 상호작용 방법이 아닌, 자신의 손으로 직접 물체를 만지거나 조작할 수 있는 직관적인 상호작용 방법이 필요한 고품질, 고정밀 애플리케이션을 지원하기에는 적합하지 않은 방법이었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 직관적이며 자연스러운 상호작용을 지원하기 위한 방법으로 고정밀 핸드 조작과 사실적 역.촉감을 제공하는 장갑형 핸드 인터페이스 장치 및 햅틱 장갑 장치와 6자유도 햅틱 장치로 구성된 핸드 햅틱 인터페이스를 제시하고자 한다.
