Haptics technology is being used more and more in different
applications, such as in computer games for increased immersion, in
surgical simulators to create a realistic environment for training
of surgeons, in surgical robotics due to safety issues and in
mobile phones to provide feedback from user action. The existence
of these applications highlights a clear need to understand
performance metrics for haptic interfaces and their implications on
device design, use and application. Performance Metrics for Haptic
Interfaces aims at meeting this need by establishing standard
practices for the evaluation of haptic interfaces and by
identifying significant performance metrics. Towards this end, a
combined physical and psychophysical experimental methodology is
presented. Firstly, existing physical performance measures and
device characterization techniques are investigated and described
in an illustrative way. Secondly, a wide range of human
psychophysical experiments are reviewed and the appropriate ones
are applied to haptic interactions. The psychophysical experiments
are unified as a systematic and complete evaluation method for
haptic interfaces. Finally, synthesis of both evaluation methods is
discussed. The metrics provided in this state-of-the-art volume
will guide readers in evaluating the performance of any haptic
interface. The generic methodology will enable researchers to
experimentally assess the suitability of a haptic interface for a
specific purpose, to characterize and compare devices
quantitatively and to identify possible improvement strategies in
the design of a system.
