Passive Virtual Fixtures Based on Simulated Position-Dependent Anisotropic Plasticity Ryo Kikuuwe, Naoyuki Takesue, and Hideo FujimotoNagoya Institute of Technology, Japan • Virtual fixtures are computer-generated fixtures for assisting/guiding human manipulation through haptic interfaces. • The control framework for always-passive, plasticity-based virtual fixtures is presented. • A plasticity-based virtual fixture acts as a hard wall when the user's force is small. • It can be deviatedby intentionally producing a force larger than a predetermined level. • It can be used with both admittance-type and impedance-type haptic interfaces.
