Zusammenfassung:This research work describes the Desktop Strip haptic interface, a device which is used for exploration of virtual surfaces with aesthetic value. Such a device allows a continuous, free hand contact on a developable plastic tape actuated by a modular servo-controlled mechanism using the tessellation approach. The device has enabled users to interact with and feel a wide variety of virtual objects by using the palm of the hand. This research work discusses the design concept, novel kinematics and mechanics of the Desktop Strip.
