  • Abstract
    This paper presents a VR toolkit for path planning and manipulation of nanotube. The toolkit is capable of modeling the interactions between an AFM tip and carbon nanotubes on a substrate surface and generating optimum and safe manipulation paths. In addition, haptic guides were designed to help the user to follow the calculated paths, to avoid obstacles.
