Surface Geometry and the Haptic Rendering of Rigid Point Contacts

This thesis examines the haptic rendering of rigid point contacts in virtual simulations. The haptic renderers generate force feedback so that the operator can interact with the virtual scenes in a realistic way. They must be able to recreate the physical phenomena experienced in the real world wi...
