VIRTALIS has been appointed as reseller for Force Dimension products for the UK, Ireland, parts of Europe and the US. Virtalis MD, David Cockburn-Price, said: “Force feedback haptic devices can now play a role in an increasing number of areas. They offer enhanced user interface to Advanced Visualisation and Virtual Reality (VR) simulations, add a useful feature in the sphere of advanced robotics, have numerous medical applications, provide the missing dimension to virtual CAD assembly processes and are currently being used in all kinds of R&D.”
Virtalis sees the new three-degree of freedom OMEGA haptic device from Force Dimension as a promising product that could complement many of its products and installations. This is because it manages to combine the latest haptic technology with a compact design. At the top end of the scale, the six-degree of freedom DELTA haptic device provides the complete solution for strong forces and large workspaces. Andrew Connell, technical director at Virtalis explained: “We are constantly seeking out ways to overcome the limitations standard computers impose on us. My Technical Team is already very experienced in the sphere of haptics, so we hope that Force Dimension will help us to remove the barriers completely, enabling our customers to see in stereoscopic 3D and touch what they can see.”Patrice Rouiller, co-founder and CTO of Force Dimension, stated: "Force Dimension is pleased to count Virtalis as one of its resellers. With its experience and recognised know-how in the field, Virtalis can provide expert resources to support the growing number of applications that make use of haptics". |
