The Geomagic line of haptic devices includes Touch™ and Touch™ X. Geomagic haptic devices are motorized devices that apply force feedback on the user’s hand and support a range of motion equivalent to hand movement pivoting at the wrist, allowing them to feel virtual objects and producing true-to-life touch sensations as user manipulates on-screen 3D objects.
For 3D modelling and design, surgical training, virtual assembly, and other procedures that require a higher degree of precision and a realistic sense of touch, Touch and Touch X devices are an easy-to-use, affordable option that pairs perfectly with Geomagic® Freeform® for the perfect design interface.
Touch™ is a mid-range professional haptic device. It is the most cost-effective haptic device and it is ideal for its manoeuvrable and handy features.
You can use Touch haptic devices in diverse applications including simulation, training, skills assessment, rehearsal, virtual assembly, robotic control, collision detection, machine interface design, rehabilitation, mapping, and more.
For 3D modelling and design, surgical training, virtual assembly and other procedures that require a higher degree of precision, Touch™ X is an easy-to-use, ideal option providing more-precise positioning input and high fidelity, force-feedback output beyond the boundaries of the standard Touch.
Touch X delivers expanded true-to-life sensations with a more fluid feel and lower friction.
Its durability, affordability and accuracy make the Touch X haptic device ideal for commercial, medical and research applications, especially when compactness and portability matter.
When used with OpenHaptics toolkit, Geomagic Touch allows developers to rapidly design and deploy haptic programs, do mash-ups into existing applications, try out new ideas, and create haptically enabled products.
The OpenHaptics® Developer Edition enables software developers to add haptics and true 3D navigation to a broad range of applications including 3D design and modeling, medical, games, entertainment, visualization, and simulation. This haptics toolkit is patterned after the OpenGL® API, making it familiar to graphics programmers and facilitating integration with OpenGL applications.
The OpenHaptics toolkit supports the range of 3D Systems haptic devices, from the low-cost Touch™ 3D stylus device, to the Touch X™ haptic device.
