Factors Affecting Human Force Perception and Performance in Haptic-Enabled Virtual Environments
(University of Waterloo, 2009-05-22)Haptic technology enables computer users to touch and/or manipulate virtual objects in virtual environments (VEs). Similar to other human-in-the-loop applications, haptic applications require interactions between humans ... -
Performance Analysis of Distributed Virtual Environments
(University of Waterloo, 2006)A distributed virtual environment (DVE) is a shared virtual environment where multiple users at their workstations interact with each other. Some of these systems may support a large number of users, e. g. , massive ... -
Tactile Haptics: A Study of Roughness Perception in Virtual Environments
(University of Waterloo, 2009-10-01)This thesis presents the design of a tactile device that can be used to display varying magnitudes of roughness. The device is designed to be attached to an existing force feedback device in order to create a package that ...
