Sensable Technologies’ DSC is designed to provide you with 24/7
accessibility to tools and information that will help you develop haptic applications and includes information about both the
3D Touch and GHOST® SDKs. 3D Touch is
what we have. UVM faculty/students, you
may ask dscadmin@sensable.com for
your own username and password. If
unsuccessful, contact me at achan@emba.uvm.edu
for access to this part of their website assuming mine still works. I remember them saying it only worked for a
certain amount of time.
Once inside, I found the OpenHaptics toolkit for Microsoft® Windows® link the most useful.
Related work would then come from the 3rd-party
Integration Examples link.
There are 3 that are compatible, denoted PHANTOM® Omni™ or any PHANTOM®.
2 are games: Haptic Dueling Game
Gravity Well Game
The one I found most interesting was at the bottom of this sample of the list:
I was most interested in integration of the Phantom with the ODE, a whole other story.
Russell Smith is the primary author of ODE which is an OPEN SOURCE, high performance library for simulating rigid body dynamics. It is fully featured, stable, mature and platform independent with an easy to use C/C++ API. It has advanced joint types and integrated collision detection with friction. ODE is useful for simulating vehicles, objects in virtual reality environments and virtual creatures. It is currently used in many computer games, 3D authoring tools and simulation tools. You may download ODE source and binaries here.

However, the
pictures show what seems to me as the Phantom Desktop model being used.

These require more
equipment than just the Phantom and monitor, check the site. The picture also looks like it uses the
Phantom Desktop model.
