....directly adjacent to one another, a probe without finite size could still move between the two models without making contact. To eliminate this possibility we compute a model that is projected outward by the radius of the desired probe. A model of this type is often referred to as an offset model (Ho, 1997). Our system uses the offset model in the haptic rendering process while using the original model for the visual display. Figure 6 illustrates the construction and use of an offset model. The original model in Fig. 6a is offset by the radius of the probe in the direction of the surface normal ....
