So far, I came up with 7 companies (Exos, Cybernet, Teletechnologies, Sarcos, Immersion Human Interface, SensAble Devices and AEO O'Donnel) and 8 rez centers (Rutgets, ARTS Lab, Grenoble, Tokyo, UNC, MIT, JPL and NCCOSC). Does anyone have further pointers? I can summarize to the group if I get enough response. Thanks! diego ---------------------------------- --------------------------------- | _--_|\ Diego Montefusco | Tel: +61 2 566 4416 | | / \ 12/2 Mary Street | | | \_.--._/ Glebe, NSW 2037 | Email: diego@zip.com.au | | v Australia | | ---------------------------------- -------------- Mai dire (or)mai - ------------------------------ From: diego@zip.com.au (Diego Montefusco) Subject: INFO: General Electrics HANDYMAN Closely related to my previous posting on force feedback, I'd also need pointers, references and any other possibile info on a rather old GE project, the Handyman, its evolution and outcomes. If it was possible to get a name of someone within GE knowledgable of the topic, it would be *JUST* great! thanks again, diego ---------------------------------- --------------------------------- | _--_|\ Diego Montefusco | Tel: +61 2 566 4416 | | / \ 12/2 Mary Street | | | \_.--._/ Glebe, NSW 2037 | Email: diego@zip.com.au | | v Australia | | ---------------------------------- -------------- Mai dire (or)mai - ************************************************************ End of InfoBooth Digest ************************************************************
