Project Details
- "Audio Haptics is a rendering technique for auditory and haptic sensations. Sound and force are generated by using a physical model of virtual objects. We developed a software for real-time calculation of a physical model of virtual objects. A speaker is set at the grip of the haptic interface for spatial localization of the sound."
- This project supports the generation of arbitrary impact points of the virtual object by a physical model comprised of (1) collision detection, (2) calculation of the vibration of virtual objects, and (3) sound emission. Additionally, haptic forces for material reactions (shape, elasticity, viscosity) are conveyed to the manipulator.
