CYBERFORCE

Electric motors for machines that apply force and tactile sensation to the human body

Systems for sensing and/or applying force or tactile sensation to a body part, namely, electronic or electro-mechanical tele-robotic sensors; electronic or electro-mechanical motion controllers; electronic or electro-mechanical force controllers; electronic or electro-mechanical position sensors; and electronic or electro-mechanical force feedback monitors comprised of computer hardware and/or computer software for use with computer hardware; computer navigation and pointing devices, namely, mice, trackballs, and electronic stylus pens for use in measuring motion of body parts or for inputting a desired action to a computer; electronic circuit boards and integrated circuit chips for control for electronic motion controllers; electronic or electro-mechanical position sensors; hand position sensing and/or measurement devices, gloves and exo-skeletal bodyware instrumented to sense body or hand motion or position and to provide a force or tactile sensation to a wearer of the glove use as interactive control of computers; and computer software, namely computer software for sensing and measuring positions and motions of real or simulated virtual reality body parts and detecting real or simulated virtual reality object interactions and collisions, computer software for simulating two-dimensional and three-dimensional object-object and body-object virtual reality interactions; all for use in computer interaction and control or for computerized virtual reality simulation and analysis, electronic and electro-mechanical force transducers for machines that apply force and tactile sensation to the human body
