Abstract
Volume haptics has become an increasingly popular way of adding guidance and improving information bandwidth in scientific visualization. State-of-the-art methods, however, use linear equations, which allows for a precision that can be insufficient in some circumstances. This paper describes how step-length subdivision can be used to improve precision even though these methods do not use integration steps in its usual meaning.
