Which KUKA model is this and what did it cost?

Are you using magnetic ball joints in your delta robot?

Thank you!

One more comment. Ever thought to make product out of this? I use lots of Skype to connect with farway relatives and USB connected haptic interface would be pretty awesome for interaction.

For example haptic chopsticks maybe? You can do quite much with those already like play some game. Add this to some moving platform (like Spykee or Roomba) and you could have some physical work done remotely.
