Abstract

We report on the capacity of an operator to utilize visual feedback to stabilize an otherwise marginally stable force reflecting system. We use a simple model of the force reflecting system to argue that such a stabilising influence can only arise from phase advance generated by the operator’s view of the task representation.

Supported by EPSRC grant GR/15005 in collaboration with UK Robotics Ltd. and BNFL P LC.
