  • Abstract
    We developed ER actuators with low inertia. ER actuator is a torque-controllable clutch which uses an electrorheological fluid. It is shown that this actuator has good properties for force display device, physical therapy treatment, etc. Then, we developed new force display devices for virtual reality by using the developed ER actuators
