Virtuose™ 6D TAO
The best with more
The Virtuose 6D TAO is a derived version of the Virtuose 6D RV haptic device, adapted specifically for the robotic and teleoperation markets. It is equipped with an extra button box, a robotic handle and uses the EtherCAT communication protocol.
The Virtuose 6D TAO benefits from all the Virtuose 6D RV’s technology with answers to the needs in remote handling: master-slave setup, one hand and two hands shifting, heavy objects handling simulation.
It is a master arm with force feedback whose developments were realized in collaboration with our customers, to answer to the needs of teleoperation and remote handling applications. The Virtuose 6D TAO master arms have proven their robustness through an unequalled field experience for haptic devices. They already count several thousand hours of operation and keep proving their reliability on the long run by being used on a daily basis for telerobotic operations and processes.
The Virtuose 6D TAO is available in a High Force Version, which allows to double the level of force feedback available on the translations and the rotations. It is a version predestined for applications demanding a very high level of force feedback.
The Virtuose 6D TAO is also compatible with our range of software solutions, which allow you to directly use the device in CAD software to perform assembly simulation and in 3D game engines to generate even more realistic immersive experiences.
