Haptics
 
 
Gear Box example using a haptic deviceHaptic devices allow users to feel their interfaces and interactions and have the potential to radically change the way we use computers. We will be able to use our powerful sense of touch as an alternative mechanism to send and receive information in computer interfaces. Haptic technology is now maturing and coming out of research laboratories and into real products and applications.
Just as the computer monitor enables users to see images and audio speakers allow users to hear sounds, Phantom and HapticMaster devices make it possible for users to touch and manipulate virtual objects. The SensAble haptic devices and toolkits are used for applications such as medical simulation, virtual training, geophysics, robotics, teleoperations, assembly path planning, molecular modelling, and nano- manipulation.

Virtalis have been distributing the FCS Robotics HapticMaster for some while, and were more recently appointed as the UK’s reseller of SensAble’s PHANTOM range of haptic devices. We have a lot of experience integrating these systems into other applications.

Haptic Device applications

Haptic devices help optimize the design parameters of your system before you make a prototype, shortening your product design cycle.Maintenance issues can be addressed before a prototype has been built.
