Specializing in force feedback, Haption develops robotics solutions for a wide range of industries. Whether for the medical or nuclear sectors, Haption’s tools have a single objective: to improve interaction and collaboration between humans and machines. Without replacing the human hand and expertise, how can we take advantage of the technical and infallible capabilities of robots? Here are some answers from Jean-François de Sallier, Business Developer Europe at Haption.
Can you tell us more about your company?
HAPTION designs, manufactures and sells hardware and software solutions based on force-feedback. We operate in four market segments: transport industry (automotive and aeronautics), nuclear industry, academic research, and medical devices.
In the transport industry, we supply solutions for the early simulation of assembly and maintenance operations. In the nuclear industry, our products are used in the teleoperation of robotic equipment. In the case of academic research, our technology is at the core of human-computer interaction paradigms. Finally, for the medical sector we provide means to learn manual skills by rehearsing them on virtual patients.
