This paper proposes a simple 1 DOF rotational haptic display that achieves endless sharpening of a pencil. Many haptic applications have been proposed to present shapes, elasticity, viscosity, and other physical properties of the environment. While these are important to support many tasks such as teleoperation and computer aided design, we focus on the use of haptic display for amusement. We paid...
We created a new entertainment called ldquoAnts in the Pantsrdquo. A user can see many ants moving around on a visual display. The userpsilas hand is placed into a tactile display in the form of a glove that has a matrix of small motors with brushes inside it. When the user places their gloved hand on the visual display, the user can feel a sensation as if ants are crawling up their arm. We have tested...
For gaming applications, we propose the idea of a multimodal interface worn on the abdomen to present the feeling of being slashed. Tactors and speakers produce tactile and auditory stimuli on the abdomen. We compared the tactile apparent movement with auditory motion, focusing on position and speed. The subjectively equivalent position and velocity of the two modalities matched well. In addition,...
It is known that peripheral vision strongly contributes to the sense of self-motion, and that users of visual displays with a narrow field of view often find it hard to experience such sensations fully. In this research, we propose a peripheral display that augments the feeling of self-motion. This consists of simple displays that stimulate the user's peripheral area of vision. By changing the stimulus...
