Adaptive Cost-Map-based Path Planning in Partially Unknown Environments with Movable Obstacles
Liviu-Mihai Stan, Ranulfo Bezerra, Shotaro Kojima +4
Reliable navigation in disaster-response and other unstructured indoor settings requires robots not only to avoid obstacles but also to recognise when those obstacles can be pushed…
Reproduction of High-frequency Vibration Experience by a Sensory Equivalent Conversion Method for the Standard Haptic SDK of Meta Quest 3
Daito Igarashi, Masashi Konyo, Satoshi Tadokoro
In recent years, there has been a growing demand for realistic haptic experiences in VR. This study employs the Intensity Segment Modulation (ISM) method to convert high-frequency…
Out-of-body Localization of Virtual Vibration Sources Using a Limited Numbers of Transducers on the Torso
Gen Ohara, Masashi Konyo, Satoshi Tadokoro
Stereohaptic vibration is an innovative vibrotactile technology that extends the conventional tactile localization to the surrounding space, representing a virtual vibration source…
Conveying Surroundings Information of a Robot End-Effector by Adjusting Controller Button Stiffness
Noel Alejandro Avila Campos, Masashi Konyo, Ranulfo Bezerra +2
This study addresses the challenge of low dexterity in teleoperation tasks caused by limited sensory feedback and visual occlusion. We propose a novel approach that integrates hapt…
Measurement and Interpolation for Data-Driven Pressure Distribution Rendering on a Finger Pad
Kazuya Sase, Rei Onodera, Hikaru Nagano +1
We propose a data-driven pressure distribution rendering method that uses the interpolation of experimentally obtained pressure values. The pressure data were collected using a pre…
Vibrotactile Feedback for a Remote Operated Robot with Noise Subtraction Based on Perceived Intensity
Ryoma Yamawaki, Takeru Shimamura, Noel Alejandro Avila Campos +4
There is a growing demand for teleoperated robots. This paper presents a novel method for reducing vibration noise generated by robot's own motion, which can disrupt the quality of…
