Abstract :
A distributed PHANToM-based system for collaborative haptic visualization of a VR crank is presented. Physical IDOF crank model providing realistic kinaesthetic sensations of inertia and viscosity is described. Theoretical and experimental kinematic trajectory patterns are compared for the case of cooperative two-arm human movements. Nonvisual visualization applications of the system are discussed.
