Abstract :
Experimental results are presented that evaluate the stability and performance of a projection-based force reflection algorithm for haptic interaction with a virtual wall. It is shown that the projection-based algorithm allows for stability improvement similar to the one that can be achieved by using the virtual coupling; however, contrary to the virtual coupling, the projection-based force reflection algorithms algorithms do not result in the transparency deterioration.
