Abstract: A borescope feedback system with haptic feedback includes a borescope cable, a containment device, a cable sensor that is configured to detect motion of the borescope cable and output cable sensor data indicative of the motion of the borescope cable, a feedback device that is configured to controllably apply friction to the borescope cable, and a computing device configured to output a graphical user interface of a virtual reality representation of the borescope cable in a virtual environment; determine at least one of a direction of axial motion, a direction of circumferential motion, or a magnitude of the motion of the borescope cable; determine a collision of the virtual reality representation of the distal portion of the borescope cable with an obstruction in the virtual environment; and output a feedback signal to the feedback device that causes the feedback device to apply an amount of friction to the borescope cable.
