Tactile stimulus providing system

Abstract

A tactile stimulation providing system includes: an apparatus for generating first actuator strength values corresponding to representative values of frequency bands of first audio data and second actuator strength values corresponding to representative values of frequency bands of second audio data; and an apparatus for driving actuators, based on the first actuator strength values and the second actuator strength values, wherein a number of the actuators is smaller than a number of the first and second actuator strength values, the first audio data includes information on a first direction, the second audio data includes information on a second direction, an actuator corresponding to first position information is driven based on only at least one of the first actuator strength values, and an actuator corresponding to second position information is driven based on only at least one of the second actuator strength values.
