CUCAT Haptics Showcase


Haptics Showcase is an application developed to test the ability of Blind and Vision Impaired ability to determine basic 2 and 3 dimensional shapes with a haptic device. To run the program, the openhaptics API must be installed (available from http://www.sensable.com/support-downloads.htm). To run without a haptic device use the demo button in the top left.
