Stiffness refers to the resistance of an object to deformation when an external force is applied. In the context of haptic interfaces, stiffness plays a crucial role in how users perceive and interact with virtual objects, influencing the feel and feedback they receive during manipulation. The level of stiffness can affect the performance of these interfaces, impacting usability, realism, and the overall experience of users.
congrats on reading the definition of Stiffness. now let's actually learn it.
