Mod2Hap: Two Level Modular Haptic System for Body- and Hand- Interactions using Magnetorheologica...
summary
Mod2Hap is a two-level modular haptic system that uses magnetorheological (MR) fluid to provide passive, tunable resistance for body- and hand-scale interactions. It assembles from configurable frame blocks plus rotary and linear haptic modules that are optimized by simulation (1 mm rotary gap, 0.5 mm linear gap) and driven by power‑efficient solenoids. Measured output spans 0.12–0.52 N·m torque and 41–212 N force; a 12‑participant study with 7‑point Likert ratings shows higher realism and engagement when actuators are on.
