Resolution of the facial tactile sensation is known as almost same as the resolution of a hand. In order to generate facial tactile sensation for entertainment, various equipment using air such as fan-based or compressor-based equipment have been introduced. But the conventional equipment has limited expression of tactile sensation. In this paper, we evaluated the varieties of expression of air pressured facial tactile display using vortex air canon, which we have developed. First of all, the characteristics of tactile sensation of the developed vortex air canon device are clarified. Next evaluation method of impressions using air-pressured facial tactile is established. And by comparing subjective impressions to other air generated equipment, fan and compressor, we found vortex air canon provide varieties of subjective impressions to face.
