Two-Fingered Haptic Device for Robot Hand Teleoperation

الملخص EN

A haptic feedback system is required to assist telerehabilitation with robot hand.

The system should provide the reaction force measured in the robot hand to an operator.

In this paper, we have developed a force feedback device that presents a reaction force to the distal segment of the operator's thumb, middle finger, and basipodite of the middle finger when the robot hand grasps an object.

The device uses a shape memory alloy as an actuator, which affords a very compact, lightweight, and accurate device.
