  A study of level-of-detail in haptic rendering
Payandeh S., Dill J., Zhang J.  ACM Transactions on Applied Perception 2(1): 15-34, 2005. Type: Article

Haptic feedback is becoming more and more common in the visual simulation of various critical tasks. To this end, the physical properties of the underlying material need to be measured or evaluated, and used to simulate the forces applied to the...
