Abstract

This paper aims to present all the study done on the SPIDAR tracking and haptic device, in order to improve accuracy on the given position. Firstly we proposed a new semi-automatic initialization technique for this device using an optical tracking system.We also propose an innovative way to perfom calibration of 3D tracking device using virtual reality. Then, we used a two-layered feedforward neural network to reduce the location errors. We obtained very good results with this calibration, since we reduced the mean error by more than 50%.
