HeatHapt Thermal Radiation-Based Haptic Display

摘要

We propose HeatHapt, which is a concept of thermal radiation-based haptic display. By using thermal radiation and human characteristic of heat sensation, the HeatHapt realizes virtual haptic sensation in the air. The human feels drastic phase shift between 45 °C from hot to pain. We employ the characteristic and haptic movement of human and display haptic-like sensation to him. The system realizes haptic contact with digital contents directly with his hands.
