Title
An Infant-Like Device that Reproduces Hugging Sensation with Multi-Channel Haptic Feedback
Abstract
ABSTRACT Proximity interaction, such as hugging, plays an essential role in building relationships between parents and children. However, parents and children cannot freely interact in the neonatal intensive care unit due to visiting restrictions imposed by COVID-19. In this study, we develop a system of pseudo-proximity interaction with a remote infant through a VR headset by using an infant-like device that reproduces the haptic feedback features of the hugging sensation, such as weight, body temperature, breathing, softness, and unstable neck.
