A Parallel Computing Platform for Real-Time Haptic Interaction with Deformable Bodies
Abstract
Real-time simulation of haptic interaction with deformable objects is computationally demanding. In particular in finite-element (FE) based analysis of such interactions, a large system of equations must be solved at an update rate of 100-1,000 Hz for simulation fidelity and stability. A new hardware-based parallel implementation of a Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient (PCG) algorithm is proposed for solving the linear systems of equations …
