Assignments(Example Solution Key)
- What differentiates grounded force-feedback (GFF) devices from other categories of haptic devices? Explain your answer.
- Identify grounded force-feedback (GFF) devices in the following examples. Which one(s) is a kinesthetic device? Is defining the category of a device always straightforward?
1.3 Find a paper that employs a grounded force-feedback (GFF) device in an application or user study. Describe the application or the goal of the user study in a few sentences.
You can look through the papers published in the major haptics, robotics, and human-computer interaction venues:
- ACM CHI
- ACM UIST
- IEEE Transactions on Haptics
