Virtual Sculpting and Multi-axis Polyhedral Machining Planning Methodology with 5-DOF Haptic Interface
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents techniques of integrating haptic device into computer-aided design and manufacturing. The methodology is proposed as three steps: 1) develop the virtual sculpting system for aiding product design; 2) convert the product design into acceptable form for downstream manufacturing or rapid prototyping; 3) develop multi-axis polyhedral machining planning system with haptic input. Experiment and examples are presented to illustrate the workflow. The presented techniques can be used for haptic virtual prototyping, computer-aided design and manufacturing, and multi-axis machining planning.

3-dof Haptic Rendering
1. Introduction Haptic rendering enables a user to touch, feel, and manipulate virtual objects through a haptic interface (see Figure 1). The field has shown a significant expansion during the last decade. Since the publication of earlier review papers (Salisbury and Srinivasan, 1997; Srinivasan and Basdogan, 1997), new rendering techniques and several new applications have emerged (see the mor...
متن کاملTri-Dexel Volumetric Modeling for Haptic Sculpting and Virtual Prototyping of Complex Surfaces
This paper presents a new tri-dexel volumetric modeling method for representing complex geometric models in applications such as haptic virtual sculpting and product prototyping. A tri-dexel model consists of three overlapping dexel models in X, Y, and Z axis directions, respectively. Detailed algorithms of eliminating inconsistency in a tri-dexel model and reconstructing a water-tight polyhedr...
متن کاملVoxel-Based 6-DOF Haptic Rendering Improvements
An approach is presented for realizing an order-of-magnitude improvement in spatial accuracy for voxel-based 6-DOF haptics. It trades constant-time performance for greater spatial accuracy. This helps to make 6-DOF haptics applicable to extraordinarily complex real-world task simulations, which often admit no other known solution short of physical mockup. A reduction of haptic fidelity is tacti...
متن کاملThe evaluation of a novel haptic machining VR-based process planning system using an original process planning usability method
This thesis provides an original piece of work and contribution to knowledge by creating a new process planning system; Haptic Aided Process Planning (HAPP). This system is based on the combination of haptics and virtual reality (VR). HAPP creates a simulative machining environment where Process plans are automatically generated from the real time logging of a user’s interaction. Further, throu...
متن کاملHaptic sculpting of multi-resolution B-spline surfaces with shaped tools
In this paper, we first propose an implicit surface to B-spline surface haptic interface, which provides both force and torque feedback. We then present a new haptic sculpting system for B-spline surfaces with shaped tools of implicit surface. In the physical world, people touch or sculpt with their fingers or tools, instead of just manipulating points. Shaped virtual sculpting tools help users...
