Abstract

The design of a four degree-of-freedom, force-reflecting manipulandum for manual interaction with virtual environments is presented. The device emulates a handtool which the operator can use to explore and manipulate virtual objects. The performances of the device, its ability to generate a broad range of impedances, is determined by a variety of factors including the inherent dynamics of the manipulator, the accuracy and resolution of sensors, and the speed of the digital controller.
