Encountered haptic Augmented Reality interface for remote examination

This paper presents an interaction system for haptic based remote palpation and in general remote examination. In particular the proposed approach combines 3D representation of the remote environment with encountered haptic feedback aiming at high transparency and natureleness of interaction. The paradigm is described as interaction design and system implementation.
