MetamorphX

MetamorphX is a gripping-type force feedback device capable of generating torque in three axes using four Control Moment Gyroscopes. By sensing the user's own movements and rapidly outputting torque based on velocity and acceleration, it can replicate inertial forces, viscous forces, and rigidity forces felt from objects held in hand within a VR environment. User studies have revealed that these force representations can alter the user's perception of object size, weight, flexibility, and environmental viscosity. MetamorphX has demonstrated its capability to convey a wide range of sensory feedback.
