The actual physical control task is also perceived visually. The constitutes the common situation of remote controlling acompfcx. physical process while only visual feedback plus possibly a limited set of local measurements can be provided. Two classes of haptic feedback are distinguished. First haptic feedback reflecting the remote wnsor measurement in a guiding form (negative feedback) is considered as a form of communicating the local situation. In the second class the forces which arc supposed to be tell are reflected in the haplic controls (positive feedback). The effects of changing interface forces as well as preferences in groups of different leveis of experience or age arc investigated. The hypothesis: 'Human operators learn to remotely guide an acceleration controlled vehicle significantly faster and achieve higher accuracy, if vehicle -centric inertia data is provided via haptic feedback in the user interface.'.Keywords: Complex control; Control interfaces; Haptic feedbacks; Human movements; Human operator; Interface forces; Local measurement; Motor skill learning; Physical control; Physical process; Remote control operation; Remote controlling; Skills acquisition; Visual Acceleration controlled vehicles; Haptic feedback; Human movement studies; Motor skill learning; Remote control operation20082016-02-24
