Thanks. Solenoid actuator is also one area we are thinking of using but we worry that the impulsive force may not be sufficient. I am thinking of piezo impact drive mechanism (IDM). A google search of IDM reveals mostly research paper rather than suppliers. I'll google search again. Not sure...

No. We are using a real racket. Currently, we have a Virtual Reality tracking device to track the player's motion. It's a haptic tennis game project. We added a simple relay motor to create vibration to the racket. So far, it works ok. But we think it is not realistic so we want to find some...

Thanks. Yup... finding the actuator is a tricky issue. I can't expect it to be exactly the same as the real scenario but if close enough with a reasonable impulsive feel, it should be gd enough. Still in the search. hopefully, i'll find one soon...

Hi, I am working on a tennis gaming project. The goal is to add haptic feedback to the racket. Currently, we have added simple relay motors to create vibration feedback to the racket but that is not enough. I am looking for an actuator that can provide impulsive force feedback (to simulate...
