Abstract

When we display the texture of virtual 3D objects, it is required to display both tactile and force information at the same time. Although some force displays are commercially available in order to display tactile information together with force information, a wearable tactile display should be realized. Hence this paper proposes a novel wearable tactile display aiming for the integration with force display. To realize such a device, we used the squeeze film effect for tactile display, occurred by an ultrasonic vibration. First, we developed an ultrasonic vibrator for tactile display. The ultrasonic vibrator is required to be small and produce enough force to display the texture. Then, we develop a wearable tactile display using the ultrasonic vibrator. Finally, we verified the usability of the wearable tactile display by experiments.
