Force Dimension Omega 7 Haptic Device

With its unique active grasping extension, the omega.7 is the most versatile haptic device available. Its end-effector covers the natural range of motion of the human hand and is compatible with bi-manual teleoperation console design.

The combination of full gravity compensation and driftless calibration contributes to greater user comfort and accuracy. The active gripper can generate a grasping force of up to 8 Newtons in both directions.

The omega.7 comes in either left- or right-hand configuration and leverages all translational force feedback capabilities of the omega.3.
