Abstract
We describe the redesign and the performance evaluation of a high-performance haptic device system called the Pantograph. The device is based on a two degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism which was designed for optimized dynamic performance, but which also is kinematically well conditioned. The results show that the system is capable of producing accurate tactile signals in theDC–400 Hz range and can resolve displacements of the order of 10 μm. Future improvements are discussed.
