Abstract

Haptic interfaces generate the sense of touch in the form of force or tactile feedback and allow us to touch and manipulate objects either within a virtual environment or in a real world through a slave of a teleoperated system, such as for surgical robotics. There has been considerable amount of research on the haptic technology, which brought it into computer games, surgical simulators, mobile phones etc. A closer investigation of these devices and studies on their performance evaluation shows that type of evaluations, aim of methods and performance metrics vary considerably depending on the device. We have, therefore, reviewed the evaluation methods in the literature that have been applied to haptic devices. In this chapter, first, commercially available haptic interfaces and their application areas are reviewed. Then, haptic interface evaluation studies in the literature are discussed and categorized into two groups: physical and psychophysical evaluation studies.
