  • Abstract
    In this paper we propose a new compact 6-DOF haptic interface with large workspace. It contains a newly developed five bar spatial gimbal mechanism for orientation, placed on a modified Delta parallel-link mechanism. The motion range of each axis of the five bar mechanism is over ±70 degrees. Quick motions can be realized easily due to the parallelism inherent to both the modified Delta substructure and the five bar substructure
