This paper describes the evaluation of a force-reflecting interface with ultrasonic motors(USMs). The force-reflecting interface allows a human to feel object within virtual environment. To effectively display the mechanical impedance of the human hand we need a haptic device with specific characteristics, such as low inertia, almost zero friction and very high stiffness. USMs have attracted considerable attention as the actuator satisfied these conditions. USMs combine features such as high driving torque at low rotational speed, high holding torque and fast response therefore we studied two degree of freedom force-reflecting haptic system.

It is necessary for young children to integrate the sense of sight, hearing, touch, etc. for developing their emotion and cognition. Thanks to Information and Communication Technology (ICT) development, young children have more opportunities to use various senses in learning process. However, ICT learning method is more focusing on the sense of sight and hearing, and lacks of integrated recognition and this fact leads to the reason why ICT can not be used as a main education tool. Therefore, this study evaluated the influence of wUbi-Pen(haptic device) on cognition using a computer puzzle program. The results show that young children using a haptic pen have greater intention and performance in object assembly, mazes, picture completion in K-WPPSI test than those of non-using haptic pen. This implies that haptic function should be considered in ICT material and indeed useful in various cognition-related symptoms and diseases.

We propose a haptic rendering technology for touchable video. Our touchable video technique allows users for feeling the sense of touch while probing directly on 2D objects in video scenes or manipulating 3D objects brought out from video scenes using haptic devices. In our technique, a server sends video and haptic data as well as the information of 3D model objects. The clients receive video and haptic data from the server and render 3D models. A video scene is divided into small grids, and each cell has its tactile information which corresponds to a specific combination of four attributes: stiffness, damping, static friction, and dynamic friction. Users can feel the sense of touch when they touch directly cells of a scene using a haptic device. Users can also examine objects by touching or manipulating them after bringing out the corresponding 3D objects from the screen. Our touchable video technique proposed in this paper can lead us to feel maximum satisfaction the haptic-audio-vidual effects directly on the video scenes of movies or home-shopping video contents.

In this paper, we present a haptic virtual exhibition space that allows users to interact with 3D graphic objects not only through the sense of sight but also through the sense of touch. The haptic virtual exhibition space offers users in different places some efficient ways to experience the exhibitions of a virtual musical museum using the basic human senses of perception, such as vision, audition, and touch. Depending on 3D graphic objects, we apply different properties to let those feel realistic. We also provide haptic device based navigation which prevents users from rushing between various interfaces: keyboard and mouse. The haptic virtual museum is based on Client-Server architecture and clients are represented in the 3D space in the form of avatars. In this paper, we mainly discuss the design of the haptic virtual exhibition space in detail and in the end, we provide performance analysis in comparison to other similar applications such as QTVR and VRML).

Netflix Original movies have distinctive characteristics in that it is screened online only and viewers have to watch movies using their personal devices. By analyzing the haptic characteristics of Netflix platform from remediation perspective, we examine how Netflix hypermediacy haptic characteristics associated with clicking or touching expand to immediacy haptic characteristics, and compare the differences between Netflix original movie (2020) and film movie (1940). Through this, it points out the connection between the sense of the hand that requires clicking or touching and the description of the hand in Netflix original movie . As the individual interface of the personal device has been adjusted to make it possible to watch movies, the position of the hand becomes important in watching movies, and the hand plays an essential role in the beginning, middle, and end of the movie. Therefore, this study, which focuses on the haptic characteristics of Netflix original movie , is meaningful in that it studied the characteristics of the OTT original movie that was not previously covered and that the haptic characteristic plays an important role in the way of watching OTT contents.

In a haptic interface system with a nanoscale virtual environment (NVE) using an atomic force microscope (AFM), impedance scaling is important. In order to explicitly derive the relationship between performance and impedance scaling factors, a nanoscale virtual coupling (NSVC) concept and a selection method of scaling factors of velocity (or position) and force are introduced. An available scaling factor region is represented based on Llewellyn's absolute stability criteria and the physical limitation of the haptic device. Experiments have been performed for tele-nanomanipulation tasks such as positioning, indenting and nanolithography with available force scaling factor in the NVE.

In this paper, we investigate the issues on the design and implementation of tele-operation system based on the haptic interface. Here, the 3-DOF haptic device and the X-Y-Z stage are employed as master controller and slave system respectively. For this master-slave system, the force feedback algorithm, the modeling of virtual environments and the control method of X-Y-Z stage are presented. In this paper, internet network is used for data communication between master and slave.
