Abstract
In this paper, the Italian research program AIDA, supported by MIUR (Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research) within the PRIN 2005 action, is presented. The activity, planned for two years, is developed by five Research Units, active at the University of Bologna, University of Siena, University of Verona, PERCRO Lab. (Scuola Superiore S. Anna), San Raffaele University in Milano, and involves, with different modalities, about 40 researchers. The general objective of AIDA is to study and develop innovative haptic interfaces, with particular attention to interfaces with "multi-point" capabilities, to allow for a more natural interaction with virtual objects, and to the interaction with compliant virtual objects. An important part of this proposal consists in the analysis and study of the human perceptual and control abilities in the type of tasks considered in this project. This knowledge will be exploited to optimize the design of new haptic interfaces.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
