Abstract
A new configuration of Human Interface for "artificial reality" is discussed. This paper describes a method of implementing force-feedback in a virtual space manipulation system. The system is composed of two subsystems, a real-time graphic display system and a tactile input device with reaction force generator. A specialized graphics computer (Stardent TITAN) provides a realtime image of the virtual space. A 9 degree-of-freedom manipulator has been developed as a tactile input device. The manipulator applies reaction forces to the fingers and palm of the operator. The generated forces are calculated from a solid model of the virtual space. The performance of the system is exemplified in manipulation of virtual solid objects such as a mockup for industrial design and a 3D animated character.

A virtual reality keyboard with realistic haptic feedback in a fully immersive virtual environment
This study presents a 3D virtual reality (VR) keyboard system with realistic haptic feedback. The system uses two five-fingered data gloves to track finger positions and postures, uses micro-speakers to create simulated vibrations, and uses a head-...
Air Jet Driven Force Feedback in Virtual Reality
The Air Jet Interface is an untethered VR system with force feedback based on the use of air pressure. The force feedback is provided by the selective activation of air jets. The basic idea of this force feedback interface is that air released from ...
