Design of hand force feedback systems for glove-like advanced interfaces

In this paper the general concept of force feedback on the operator's hands is considered by analyzing the contact forces occurring during general exploratory and manipulative procedures performed by both the robot and virtual hands. The design aspect of hand force feedback systems for glove-like advanced interfaces is based on the specific spectrum of forces required to reproduce on the human hand.<<ETX>>
