Abstract :
The paper examines some of the design and performance issues relevant to designers and users of hand controllers as a man-machine interface in telerobotic systems. The focus is on universal six degree-of-freedom (6-dof), force-reflecting hand controllers (FRHC´s) for which various parameters are discussed and quantified to facilitate a comparison among competing FRHC designs.<>
