haptikos= able to come in connect . touch a very important thing in today's life..

2. ‘HAPTICS’ is derived
from Greek word
‘haptikos’ which
means “being able to
come into contact”
Haptic = touch

3. Haptics is the
science of
applying touch
sensation &
control to
interact with
computer
application

4. Phantom
Interface
Cyber Grasp
System

5. Phantom:
o Provides 3D touch to virtual
objects.
o Six degree-of-freedom positional
sensing.
o User can really feel the shape
and size of the virtually 3D
object that has been already
programmed.
o Virtual 3D space in which the
phantom operates is called
haptic scene.

7. Cyber Grasp:
The Cyber Grasp system fits over
user’s hand like an exoskeleton.
Provides 6 degrees of freedom.
Measure finger
angular
Flexion.

9. o Consist of two bowl shape
objects,powered by
electromagnets.
o A joystick floats around with a
tracking sensor that relays its
position back to a Linux
Fedora-powered computer.
o Users could interact with 3D
shapes using the joysticks.
o Can feel the volume & weight
of objects.

12.  Computers & video games:
Haptic feedback is commonly
used in arcade games ,
especially
racing video games.
 Mobile devices : Tactile
haptic
feedback is becoming
common in cellular devices.

13. Medical Treatment: used
For training in minimally
invasive procedures as well
As for remote surgery.
 Robotics: Widely used in
telerobotics &
teleopeartion.
 Arts & Design: Used in
virtual arts such as sound
synthesis,graphic design
and animations.

14.  High cost involved.
 Large weight and size of the haptic device.
 Haptic device can only exert force with
limited magnitute and not equally in all
direction.
 The precision of touch require lot of
advance design.

15.  Working time is reduced.
 Increase confidence in medical field.
 Communication is centered through
the touch and the digital world can
behave like the real world.

16.  Touch plays a huge role in the way we
perceive our surrounding and also how we
interact with them.
 Currently it is limited to consumers.
 Increasing applications of haptics the cost of
the haptic devices will drop in future.
 This technology brings us one step closer to
virtual world.
