Outline of Final Research Achievements

To understand the expert technique of multifingered manipulation, it is necessary to analyze, visualize, and haptialize the invisible information about the haptic perception such as the force and texture. Moreover, to achieve more realistic haptic rendering, it requires the haptic modeling based on the haptic sensing and analyzing of the physical phenomenon which occur between objects in the real world and requires the control of haptic device at real-time. In the field of the robotics, bilateral control is used to transmit the haptic information between multipoint. However, it was difficult to measure and represent the haptic perception with human finger. Therefore, we propose an estimate method of the haptic perception such as the hardness and friction of the target object based on the bilateral control with same 3DOF haptic device.
