A METHOD FOR PROVIDING HAPTIC PUZZLE SHAPE PUZZLE AND POSITION PUZZLE USING HAPTIC VIRTUAL REALITY GAMING SYSTEM

摘要

There is provided a haptic VR gaming system that can be used to assist the elderly and children as well as the handicapped to improve their ability to recognize tactile textures and 3D forms. A method of providing a haptic puzzle includes displaying a query object on a display unit and an icon corresponding to a plurality of example objects and displaying a tactile sense for each of the plurality of example objects and the query object using a tick device to the user And receives a selection of a plurality of example objects from the user using the input unit for the example object having the same texture as the query object. Then, it is determined whether the selected example object and the query object have the same texture. A method of providing a shape puzzle includes displaying an icon of a 3D figure (sphere, torus, tetrahedron, hexahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron) associated with a query object on a display unit, One at a time randomly behind the question mark screen. Then, the 3D graphic object that is invisible to the user is provided with tactile sense, the user receives the type name of the object estimated after the tactile search, and determines whether or not the 3D graphic object name is identical with the name of the 3D graphic object. In a method of providing a position puzzle, a cursor is displayed on the display unit, and an invisible object is positioned at an arbitrary position in the three-dimensional space, and the cursor display is stopped. Then, the user can move the invisible cursor to the disappearing cursor position. At this time, when the cursor touches the invisible object, the user provides tactile feedback, and the position of the invisible object received from the user coincides with the disappeared position .
