The system hardware consists of four major building blocks, anthropomorphic manipulator, haptic sensor glove, real-time microcontroller-based cluster distributed computing (CDC) network, and closed-loop controller.
The whole installation's hardware consisted of three computers, one fog machine, one Arduino, one projector, and one webcam.
The experimental hardware consisted of three major parts: the visualization system, the mechanical interface, and the signal recording system).
The hardware consisted of two PHANToM 3.0 haptic interfaces (SensAble Technologies, Woburn, MA) programmed using C++, OpenHaptics Software Toolkit, GHOST®SDK (SensAble Technologies, Woburn, MA), and OpenGL for graphics.
As shown in the figure, the tracker hardware, consisting of two infrared diode illuminators and two infrared miniature cameras, is mounted in a fixed position with regard to the OLED displays.
Using the Pellet OWL reasoner [ 41] on hardware consisting of two Intel® Xeon® 2.4 GHz quad-core CPUs with 24 GB memory, classification of the BioModels knowledge base requires more than one hour while the time required to answer queries depends on the query's complexity and ranges between 1 and 30 minutes in our experiments.
The hardware consists of a miniature three degree-of-freedom helicopter, connected to a PC via a National Instruments myDAQ data acquisition unit, and is housed within a small toolbox for transportation.
