Research
Research interests include but are not limited to the following: Haptics, Medical Robotics, Robotics, Mechatronics, and Dynamic Systems and Control. Our current research focuses on improving haptic rendering on stiff objects. We are developing new approaches to improve the rendered stiffness while maintaining stable interaction.
It has come to our attention that applications like Virtual Reality and Tele-surgery are becoming more and more accessible thanks to the technological advances in 5G. With wider bandwidth and more reliable connection in communication, these applications can finally incorporate Haptics, the sense of touch, in their user experience. Here in our group, we develop new structures for complex force rendering desktop haptic devices as well as new approaches to explore rendering stiff objects stably. These are fundamental studies to push the haptic technology forward.
