A new paper has been accepted for publication in the Proc. of the 41st Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (IECON) to be held in Yokohama, Japan, November 9 – 12, 2015. The selected article is:

Filippo Sanfilippo, Paul B.T. Weustink and Kristin Ytterstad Pettersen. A Coupling Library for the Force Dimension Haptic Devices and the 20-sim Modelling and Simulation Environment. Accepted for publication to the Proc. of the 41st Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (IECON), Yokohama, Japan, 2015.

This paper addresses the bidirectional coupling between a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) haptic feedback device and a general-purpose modelling and simulation environment. In particular, SimHaptics, an open-source library is developed to couple the Force Dimension omega.7 haptic device with the 20-sim modelling and simulation environment. The presented coupling interface is also compatible with all the different haptic devices produced by Force Dimension.

I thank all my co-authors and I congratulate all of them for their contribution.
