HAVEN: the Haptic Auditory and Visual ENvironment
The HAVEN was a facility for multisensory modeling and simulation, developed at Rutgers University by Prof. Pai to support multisensory human interaction in an immersive virtual environment. The HAVEN is a densely-sensed environment.[…]
ACME: Scanning Physical Interaction Behavior of 3D Objects
Starting around 1998, we developed the UBC ACtive MEasurement facility (ACME), a telerobotic system for capturing comprehensive computer models of physical interaction behavior of real 3D objects. The behaviors we could successfully scan and model include deformation response, contact textures for interaction with force-feedback, and contact sounds. We also developed a novel software architecture for […]
