Abstract:
In recent years, touchscreens have been used all over the world, however, most of them are without realistic haptic feedback. Some of them have feedback, but most of them have vibration direction limited to one direction. Here we propose a novel rendering method for direction-controlled 2-dimensional vibration display to present texture information. In this paper, we proposed a dimension-controlled rendering method of texture information that enables vibration control in the X and Y-axis precisely by using lateral force. Further, to improve the fidelity for large-scaled texture, we proposed to combine image features information of the textures. We held an experiment to evaluate the fidelity of the proposed method. The result shows that the proposed method can present randomized textures and large periodic textures more precisely than the conventional method.
