...Ronak R. Mohanty; Ricardo M. Castillo; Eric D. Ragan; Vinayak R. Krishnamurthy In this paper, we report on our investigation of haptics-enabled mid-air interactions for sketching three-dimensional (3D) curve-soups—collections of three-dimensional multi-planar curves. We study pen-based mid-air...

... in the sectors of reverse engineering, virtual reality, and haptic technology. The 3D model of an object is reconstructed by scanning its shape by means of a 3D scanning device. Then, the 3D model is imported into the virtual reality environment, which is used to render the 3D model of the object through...

...Berk Gonenc; Hakan Gurocak Surgical training is an important and recent application where haptic interfaces are used to enhance the realism of virtual training simulators. Tissue cutting with surgical scissors is a common interaction mode in the simulations. The haptic interface needs to render...

...Jean-Claude Leon; Thomas Dupeux; Jean-Rémy Chardonnet; Jérôme Perret The simulation of grasping operations in virtual reality (VR) is required for many applications, especially in the domain of industrial product design, but it is very difficult to achieve without any haptic feedback. Force...

...Morad Behandish; Horea T. Ilieş Haptic-assisted virtual assembly and prototyping has seen significant attention over the past two decades. However, in spite of the appealing prospects, its adoption has been slower than expected. We identify the main roadblocks as the inherent geometric complexities...

...Morad Behandish; Horea T. Ilieş The development of a generic and effective force model for semi-automatic or manual virtual assembly with haptic support is not a trivial task, especially when the assembly constraints involve complex features of arbitrary shape. The primary challenge lies...

The introduction of a haptic interface into the computer-aided design environment allows users to incorporate both a third dimension and a second sense, that of touch, into their work. In this paper, the development...
