DELFT HAPTICS LAB

The Delft Haptics Lab is investigating Symbiotic Driving: a driver-centered alternative to the conventional 'trading of control' found in the automotive and aviation industry. With symbiotic driving, we will enable a dynamic, mutually adaptive relationship with intelligent vehicles... Our mission is to understand how humans use forces when performing dynamic control tasks, and use that knowledge to help improve physical interaction with machines. Our goal toward this mission, is to conduct research and provide education in the area of haptic and human-robot interaction, on fundamental topics as well as over a wide range of practical applications (driving, flying, remote nuclear maintenance, sub-sea mining, robotic surgery, lifting aids). Through close collaboration with companies we strive to accelerate the development of our fundamental research to market applications. Additionally, with our many media and outreach activities we aim to stimulate societal discussion about human-robot..
