3 USING THE HAPTIC DEVICE

3.1 Overview

This chapter introduces you to working with the haptic device and the physical limits of the device’s range of motion.

It is important to understand these limitations so that you do not inadvertently damage the device by forcing it past

its designed limits.

3.2 Working in 3D Space

We have become so accustomed to using a mouse to move around a computer monitor that we don’t think twice

as we move our hand around a desk to move the cursor on the computer screen. But there was a time not long ago

when this seemingly simple task was not second nature; some even found it challenging and were often frustrated

as they learned. If you are new to working in 3D digital space and haptics, working with the haptic device may take

a little getting used to. Understanding where objects are in 3D space may take some practice before you are able to

move and manipulate objects with ease and certainty. Be patient with yourself.

3.3 Proper Handling and Positioning of the Haptic Device

3.3.1-Handling the Haptic Device

Lifting the device (Touch): To properly lift the device grasp the base of the unit on both sides and lift as shown in

the image below. DO NOT lift by grasping the stylus or arm. The stylus is detachable by design. Lifting the unit by the

stylus or arm could result in severe damage to the device.

Lifting the device (TouchX): To properly lift the device use one hand to grasp the back of the device, and the other

to grasp the base portion, as shown in the image below. DO NOT lift by grasping the stylus or arm. The stylus is

detachable by design. Lifting the unit by the stylus or arm could result in severe damage to the device.

Touch Touch X

Lifting the stylus out of the inkwell (Touch): Grasp the end of the stylus and lift UP, to disengage, and then OUT as

show below in the image on the left. Do NOT attempt to pull the stylus straight out as shown on the right.

Be sure to lift the stylus in a two step motion.

3D Systems, Inc.

630-0433 Rev. A

Calibrating the device (Touch): The haptic device may need to be re-calibrated from time to time, particularly if it

has lost power. To calibrate the device, place the stylus in the inkwell and start your haptically enabled application.

The indicator light in the inkwell of the haptic device will be lit a steady blue when the device is properly calibrated.

Alternatively, you can use the Touch Diagnostic Utility (Start>All Programs>3D Systems>Touch Device Drivers).

Touch Calibration

NOTE: For additional calibration instructions, please refer to the RUN 3D SYSTEMS TOUCH SMART SETUP section

Storing the stylus: After the device is calibrated, the stylus may be eft resting on the desk or kept in the inkwell

(Touch only). Keep in mind that storing the stylus in the inkwell increases the risk that the device will be knocked over

or that the stylus will be damaged.

Touch Touch X

Protecting the device from damage: It is best to place the unit rmly on the desktop and away from edges to

reduce the risk of damage to the device from a direct, unintentional elbow hit. The stylus is particularly vulnerable to

sustaining damage when it is in the inkwell.

To reduce the risk of damage, keep the device out of harms way. Pay extra attention if the stylus is stored in the inkwell.

Reassembling the detachable stylus: The Touch stylus is detachable by design. Reassemble it by aligning the blade

on the shaft with the slot in the stylus and inserting it till it snaps in place as shown in the image below.

Align the blade and shaft to reassemble the Touch stylus.

3.3.2-Positioning the 3D Systems Haptic Device

The correct placement of the device will vary from one user to another. You may want to experiment to nd a

placement that feels right for you.

• The device should be positioned so that you are comfortable when working with it.

• You should not feel any strain on your wrist or forearm when working with the device.

• If you are left-handed, you may nd it easier to work with the haptic device placed to the left of the keyboard.

• Remember to take breaks often to stretch your hands, wrists, and elbows.

3.4 Physical Limits of the Device

The haptic device has six degrees of motion provided by six axis points. All the degrees of motion have physical limits.

When you reach one of these limits you will feel a sudden stop; this is the mechanical stop designed into the device.

Forcing the device past any of these stops risks damaging the device. Take some time to become more familiar with

the physical limits of the haptic device before using the device by moving the device through its full range of motion

at each axis point.

1. First make sure the device is not active; the inkwell should not be lit. If the inkwell is lit, close any haptic applications

you have open.

2. Grasp the stylus as you would a pen, with the free end of the stylus (the eraser end of a pencil) pointing toward you

and the point of the stylus (the end connected to the arm) pointing toward the unit. Using the following illustration

as a guide, gently move the stylus in all directions to feel each mechanical stop. Now, you will perform macro

movements. That is, you will move the device at the “body,” “shoulder,” and “elbow” of the haptic device.

Encoder articulation: Macro movements. Showing movement of the haptic device arm and the body.

3. Perform macro movements, as follows:

a. Start with large-but gentle-movements. See the Figure above. Beginning at the top, move the arm of the device

left/right. The body, sometimes referred to as the turret, of the haptic device will pivot until it reaches a physical

limit. Again, do not try to force the device past any of the mechanical stops.

b. Next, move the stylus up/down. The primary movement will happen in the shoulder of the haptic device.

c. Next move it in/out with the primary movement happening in the elbow. When you reach a physical limit, you’ll

feel one of the

device’s mechanical stops. Don’t force the device past any of these stops.

4. Next, perform micro movements further down the haptic device, moving the device at the stylus:

a. Holding the stylus with one hand rotate left/right at the top of the yoke.

b. Next pivot it up/down at the bottom of the yoke where it joins the stylus.

c. Finally, gently twist the stylus back/forth.

Gimbal articulation: Micro movements. Showing movement of the haptic device stylus.

Touch Touch X

You should now have an understanding of the range of motion of the haptic device at each axis point and where its

limits are.

WARNING: ALWAYS WORK WITH THE CONNECTED END OF THE STYLUS POINTING AWAY FROM YOU. NEVER ROTATE THE

STYLUS WITH THE POINT FACING YOU.
