Sensable

Hi,
I don't know if you guys are the right people to ask about this but here I go anyways. I'm using sensable to control a cursor, and I want it to become difficult to move the cursor at certain times without there being an object in the way. Or to be able to freeze up the joystick. As far as I can tell in the demos you have to have objects which have friction on their surface. Is there anyway around that?

Hope I was clear,
Yaron Greif

Hi Yaron,

The OpenHaptics API supports exactly what you want. You can add a constant force that moves against the movement of the pen. Unfortunately there is no interface for this feature within Vizard. I could probably add this feature to the plugin, I'm not sure how soon I could get to it. Do you need it before a certain date?

Hi,
We want to start using this code for experiments Friday. So if possible could it be done by Wendsday or Thursday afternoon?

Hi,

I've just finished adding these features. I'm currently making some samples script . It should be ready by tomorrow.

Hi,

The new plugin is on the Vizard download page under the "Vizard - Developer Tools" section, titled "Haptic Effects".
