Design of a haptic forceps for microsurgery training

Hannes Bleuler, Roger Gassert, Etienne Burdet, Fei Wang

While feedback of the grasping force is necessary to manipulate objects skillfully, most Virtual Reality systems do not provide such feedback. Grasping an object is often reduced to pushing a button on the interface. This paper presents the design and real ...

An efficient and flexible perception pipeline for autonomous agents

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic

Agents in virtual environments require a combination of perception and action to behave in an autonomous way. We extend a software architecture for the management of actions blending, called AGENTlib, with a perception mechanism. The perception system prov ...
