Abstract
A haptic information presentation system uses a human sensory characteristic or illusion to suitably control a physical quantity, and causes a person to feel a force which cannot exist physically, or a haptic sensory physical characteristic.
Claims17
A haptic information presentation system comprising:
- one or more processors and memory to store one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions for:
- a sensor configured to detect at least one of a position, a velocity, an acceleration, a shape, a displacement, a transformation, a deformation, an amplitude, a rotation, a vibration, a force, a torque, a pressure, a humidity, a temperature, an elasticity, a viscosity, and a sound of the haptic information presentation system or an operator;
- a haptic information presentation device configured to present a haptic information comprising haptic sensation as if the operator operates an object;
- a haptic presentation controlling device configured to control the haptic information presentation device based on an information from the sensor,
- wherein the haptic presentation controlling device controls the haptic presentation by utilizing an illusion and/or a sensory characteristic that
- (1) a physical quantity being given to the operator and/or
- (2) the physical quantity being brought by the operation of the operator, and
- (3) a sensory quantity being presented to the operator and the physical quantity are nonlinear, and
- wherein the haptic presentation controlling device controls the physical quantity and causes the operator to feel a force and/or a haptic sensation representing a virtual force and/or a virtual object and/or a virtual haptic sensation by utilizing the illusion and/or the sensory characteristic.
