Polhem Haptic

Polhem is a 6 degree of freedom (DoF) input and 3 DoF output haptic (forcereflecting) haptic device designed for modern computing environments.
Standard high-speed USB enables high update rates for stiff and robust interaction. The internal structure is all made of metal for robustness and the device can operate with or without cover. The detachable manipulandum (stylus) can be easily customised and extended with e.g. buttons thanks to its independent wireless communication with the computer. Haptikfabriken also offers customisations of the whole device for particular applications and requirements, e.g. larger forces or workspaces, with low minimum order quantities thanks to modern digital fabrication methods.

Touch haptics

The Touch™ is the most poplar "off-the-shelf" haptics device on the market suitable for a broad range of application and research areas such as medical simulations, 3D design, virtual assemblies, master slave robotics and many more. The Touch haptics is a mid-range, professional haptic device used in research, 3D modeling, OEM applications, and more. Touch is a motorized device that applies force feedback on the users' hand, allowing them to feel virtual objects and producing true-to-life touch sensations as users manipulates on-screen 3D objects. Leading companies integrate Touch haptic devices into their work to achieve compelling solutions using the realistic sense of touch. You can use Touch haptic devices in diverse applications including simulation, training, skills assessment, rehearsal, virtual assembly, robotic control, collision detection, machine interface design, rehabilitation, mapping, and more. When used with the OpenHaptics® developer software toolkit, the Touch allows developers to design and deploy haptic programs rapidly, do mash-ups into existing applications, try out new ideas, and create haptically-enabled products. Touch is also sold as a component of Geomagic Freeform®.
