Researchers at the Stanford Robotics Lab have developed new methods for modeling multi-contact collisions and steady physical interactions between multiple rigid bodies.
The Dionne lab has developed ultrathin and compact devices for electrically driven beamsteering that fit on a semiconductor chip. These devices rely on resonant dielectric nanostructured surfaces known as "high quality factor" (high-Q) metasurfaces.
Stanford researchers have developed a method called KleinPAT, for creating sound models in seconds, making it cost effective to simulate sounds for many different objects in a virtual environment.
Researchers in the Collaborative Haptics and Robotics in Medicine Lab at Stanford University have patented a haptic device that simulates a stroking sensation.
Stanford researchers have patented the "Wolverine," a mobile, wearable haptic device designed for simulating the grasping of rigid objects in virtual reality.
