Bruce M. Schena

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Mechanical engineering
• Electrical engineering
• Artificial intelligence

His primary areas of investigation include Actuator, Haptic technology, Simulation, Control theory and Object. His Actuator research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Workspace, Rotation, Host and Electronic differential. When carried out as part of a general Haptic technology research project, his work on Haptic sensation is frequently linked to work in Fictitious force, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

The concepts of his Simulation study are interwoven with issues in Axial load, Manipulator, Robot manipulator, Torque and Base. His Control theory research integrates issues from Spline, Cyclic stress, Shaft alignment, Rotational axis and Coupling. Bruce M. Schena combines subjects such as Orientation, Mechanism, Position and Tracking with his study of Object.

His most cited work include:

• Motor interface for parallel drive shafts within an independently rotating member (696 citations)
• Haptic interface for laptop computers and other portable devices (585 citations)
• Mechanically decoupled capstan drive (540 citations)
