While tremendous advances in visual and auditory realism have been made for virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR), introducing a plausible sense of physicality into the virtual world remains challenging. Closing the gap between real-world physicality and ...

Glenoid reaming is a challenging bone machining operation performed in shoulder joint replacement surgery and represents a suitable target for further developments in haptic surgery simulation. Tool vibration is an important mode of feedback for surgeons ...

Recently, there has been substantial progress in the mechatronic design and myoelectric control of active prostheses. However, a significant unmet need is the lack of sensory feedback in commercial prostheses for upper-limb amputees. The lack of sensory ...

In this paper, a new passivity-based technique is proposed to analyze and guarantee the stability of haptics-enabled telerobotic rehabilitation systems where there is a possibility of having more sources of non-passivity than communication delays. In ...
