This paper proposes a driver supportive device with haptic cue function which can transmit optimal gear shifting timing to a driver without requiring the driver's visual attention. Its performance is evaluated under vehicle model considering automotive engine, transmission and vehicle body. In order to achieve this goal, a torque feedback device is devised and manufactured by adopting the MR (magnetorheological) fluid and clutch mechanism. The manufactured MR clutch is then integrated with the accelerator pedal to construct the proposed haptic cue device. A virtual vehicle emulating a four-cylinder four-stroke engine, manual transmission system of a passenger vehicle and vehicle body is constructed and communicated with the manufactured haptic cue device. Control performances including torque tracking and fuel efficiency are experimentally evaluated via a simple feed-forward control algorithm.

In this paper, a 2D X-Y table, two axes of which are symmetrical, and a force sensing device are constructed, which comprise a 2D haptic interfacing apparatus. Two DC motors are used for actuating the two axes of the table and two precision encoders for sensing the position of each axis. Four PZTs are used for sensing the direction and the magnitude of the 2D force applied to the force sensing device by the user. The performance of the 2D haptic interface device is tested by 2D virtual object recognition experiments.

A new 6-DOF parallel haptic device is proposed. Many existing haptic devices require large power due to having floating actuator and also have small workspaces. The proposed new mechanism can generate 6-DOF reflecting force. This device is relatively light by employing non-floating actuators and has large workspace. Kinematic analysis and kinematic optimal design is performed for this mechanism. Dexterous workspace, global isotropic index, and global maximum force transmission ratio are considered as kinematic design indices. To deal with such multi-criteria optimization problem. composite design index is employed. For the given operational specifications, actuator sizing for this mechanism is also carried out.

This paper presents force feedback control performance of a 3DOF haptic device that can be used for minimally invasive surgery (MIS). As a first step, a 3DOF electrorheological (ER) joint is designed using a spherical mechanism. And it is optimized based on the mathematical torque modeling. Subsequently, the master haptic device is manufactured by the spherical joint. In order to achieve desired force trajectories, model based compensation strategy is adopted for the ER master. Therefore, Preisach model fur the PMA-based ER fluid is identified using experimental first order descending (FOD) curves. A compensation strategy is then formulated through the model inversion to achieve desired force at the ER master. Tracking control performances for sinusoidal force trajectory are presented, and their tracking errors are evaluated.

사용자가 원격으로 가상환경에 접속하여 가상물체를 조작할 때 현실감을 증강시키기 위해서 햅틱 시스템이 사용된다. 그러나 원격 시스템 환경에는 통신시간지연이 발생하며, 발생된 통신시간지연은 햅틱 시스템을 불안정하게 만들 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 종래의 샘플-홀드 방식인 영차홀드 (ZOH; Zero-Order-Hold)가 아닌 일차홀드 (FOH; First-Order-Hold)를 포함하는 햅틱 시스템에서 시뮬레이션을 통해 통신시간지연과 햅틱 장치의 물성치 변화에 따른 가상 스프링상수의 안정성 영역을 분석하고 이를 통해 안정적인 햅틱 시스템을 구현하고자 한다. 통신시간지연이 없으면 일차홀드 (FOH) 방식이 영차홀드(ZOH) 방식보다 가상 스프링상수의 안정성 영역을 증가시킬 수 있었다. 그러나 통신시간지연이 증가하면, 샘플-홀드 방식보다 통신시간지연이 시스템 안정성에 더 큰 영향을 끼치므로, 샘플-홀드 방식에 따른 가상 스프링상수의 안정성 영역 크기에는 차이가 없어진다. 또한 통신시간지연과 일차홀드 방식이 포함되면 가상 스프링상수의 안정성 영역은 통신시간지연 크기에 반비례하고, 햅틱 장치의 댐핑상수 ($B_d$)에 정비례하여 증가하지만, 햅틱 장치의 질량 ($M_d$)에는 영향받지 않음을 알 수 있었다.

Developed in this research is a TP (tangible prototyping) system, which consists of two modules; (1) a virtual reality model to evaluate the functions and appearance of the product, and (2) a haptic device to emulate tactile and kinesthetic properties of mechanical dial knobs. As an example, a washing machine is modeled using a commercial CAD system and transformed in VRML and X3D formats. Some dynamic behaviors and kinematic characteristics are programmed using X3D script and Java. Various haptic behaviors of the dial are generated by modulating torque profile according to the rotation angle. A torque profile measuring system is developed to evaluate the behaviors of the haptic dial physically. Haptic sensibility evaluations are accomplished using the TP by semantic differential method.

The paper presents control performance of a magnetorheological (MR) fluid-based haptic knob which is applicable to invehicle comfort functions. As a first step, MR fluid-based haptic knob is devised to be capable of both rotary and push motions with a single device. Under consideration of spatial limitation, design parameters are optimally determined to minimize a reciprocal of control torque using finite element analysis. The proposed haptic knob is then manufactured and its fielddependent torque is experimentally evaluated. Subsequently, in-vehicle comfort functions are constructed in virtual environment and make them communicate with the haptic knob. Control performances such as reflection force are experimentally evaluated via simple feed-forward control strategy.

This paper presents the effect of a reflective force computed from a first-order-hold method on the stability of a haptic system. A haptic system is composed of a haptic device with a mass and a damper, a virtual spring, a sampler and a sample-and-hold. The boundary condition of the maximum virtual stiffness is analytically derived by using the Routh-Hurwitz criterion and the condition shows that the maximum virtual stiffness is proportional to the square root of the mass and the damper of a haptic device and also is inversely proportional to the sampling time to the power of three over two. The effectiveness of the derived condition is evaluated by the simulation. When the reflective forces are computed by using the first-order-hold method, the maximum available stiffness to guarantee the stability is increased several hundred times as large as when the zero-order-hold method is applied.
