Integration of Inverse Haptic Device with Elephant Robotics for Digital Twin Control

This project will explore how people can control a dual-arm robot using Haply’s Inverse haptic device and a digital twin created in Unreal Engine. The goal is to let a person move their hands naturally, while the robot copies those movements smoothly in real life. At the same time, the operator will feel touch-based feedback, making it possible to perform everyday tasks such as opening a bottle or folding clothes. By combining realistic simulation with real-world control, the project will demonstrate how haptic technology can make robots safer, easier to use, and better suited for real applications. The results will support Haply’s mission to showcase next-generation human-robot interaction at events such as CES, strengthening its role as a leader in physical AI.
