The dataset 'sensitivityThreshold(haptic feedback).zip' contains the results of a haptic feedback sensitivity study comparing a novel laparoscopic grasper with 2 conventional graspers. Also grip preference of each participant was stored.The instrument sensitivity was validated by measuring the level at which participants could discriminate force differences applied at the grasper tip with an increasing force level, while the subjects were holding the new instrument and a conventional grasper at the handle grip.
