Abstract
An electronic device according to the present disclosure includes a processor, and a memory storing a program which, when executed by the processor, causes the electronic device to perform an acquisition process of acquiring information regarding a positional relationship among a tactile sense generation device, a virtual object, and a user's hand in a three-dimensional space, and perform a control process of performing control so as to notify whether a tactile sense is given to the hand when the user touches the virtual object with the hand based on the information acquired by the acquisition process.
Claims18
An electronic device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing a program which, when executed by the processor, causes the electronic device to
- perform an acquisition process that acquires information regarding a positional relationship between each of a tactile sense generation device, a virtual object, and a user's hand in a three-dimensional space, and
- perform a control process to notify to the user whether a tactile sense is applied the user's hand when the user touches the virtual object with the user's hand based on the information acquired by the acquisition process.
A control method of an electronic device, comprising:
- acquiring information regarding a positional relationship between each of a tactile sense generation device, a virtual object, and a user's hand in a three-dimensional space;
- and
- performing control so as to notify to the user whether a tactile sense is applied the user's hand when the user touches the virtual object with the user's hand based on the acquired information.
A non-transitory computer readable medium that stores a program, wherein the program causes a computer to execute a control method of an electronic device, the control method comprising:
- acquiring information regarding a positional relationship between each of a tactile sense generation device, a virtual object, and a user's hand in a three-dimensional space;
- and
- performing control so as to notify to the user whether a tactile sense is applied the user's hand when the user touches the virtual object with the user's hand based on the acquired information.
