Abstract
In order to present the contact and collision with environment to human operator arm in a natural manner, a novel haptic interface was developed. The key technology is that we use lightweight components (resulting in wearable design) and antagonistic DC-driven tendons. The latter allows not only generating the required torque but also compensating the excessive torque when presentation of rapidly raising torque is necessary.
