Description:


    Executive Summary

    “Haptic Telexistence” provides highly realistic haptic interaction among humans and objects located in remote places. We have developed innovative devices and constructed a master-slave system to realize “Haptic Telexistence”. Human interaction will be dramatically improved by this concept that perceives us the properties of an object.
