Title
Feasibility of Force Presentation in an Arbitrary Direction Using the Ungrounded Force Display Device with Cam
Abstract
This research proposes the ungrounded force display device using the cam. Using the human illusion, the user can feel the force in one direction when they are imposed to asymmetric reciprocating motion. This device is mainly configured the cam and the slider. The slider follows the cam and moves in asymmetric reciprocating motion. We have proposed the two prototypes in the previous papers. In the first prototype, we confirmed the usefulness of the generation of the asymmetric acceleration. In the second prototype, we proposed to solve the problems in the first prototype. It presents the force to users more clearly than the first prototype. These prototypes present the force to only one direction. However, in order to apply the device to a certain practical application such as mobile navigation device to present the direction to a destination, the device needs to present the force in any direction in user's hand. Therefore, in this paper, we investigate the feasibility of omni-directional force presentation using developed second prototype. We conducted 2 experiments and 1 additional experiment. These experimental results confirm that the feasibility of omni-directional force presentation. In addition, these results suggest that we should grasp the device using fingertips to clearly perceive the force direction.
