Abstract

This paper presents a model based prediction of haptic data signals for data compression purposes in virtual haptic teleinteraction environments. The proposed data reduction itself is based on psychophysical properties of human perception. This scheme can be used for Internet-based multimedia applications like haptics-supported games or virtual haptic explorations. Using our approach haptic data packet rate reduction of up to 95% without impairing immersiveness is achieved.
