In interacting with stiff environments through teleoperated systems, time delays cause a mismatch between haptic feedback and the expected feedback by the operator. This mismatch causes artefacts in the feedback, which decrease transparency, but so does filtering these artefacts. Through modelling of operator stiffness and the expected feedback force with EMG, the artifacts can be selectively filt...
