Abstract.
In the paper the one-axis haptic joystick is proposed and described. This joystick utilizes a magnethoreological (MR) brake in order to obtain operator movement opposite force which creates feedback force. The MR brake investigations results are shown. The designed and built joystick was then connected to the computer, and used to control of prepared in Matlab/Simulink software, virtual model of electrohydraulic drive. The main equations describing this drive were shortly described. Finally the investigations stand and some results are presented.
