Abstract: The purpose of this project is to design a commercially viable single-axis haptic device. Previous designs were only prototypes and are not sufficiently robust, aesthetically pleasing, or easily reproducible. Our haptic device will be a single axis-force reflecting wheel. It is intended to be used for multiple applications. Professors will be able to use our device to demonstrate system dynamics and controls in a classroom setting. Doctors and physical therapists will be able to use our device for the rehabilitation of stroke victims in medical settings.
