In recent years, haptic devices have been studied for motor learning such as for sports. Learners ordinarily recognize target movements forcibly moved by haptic devices and reproduce the target movements. The kind of learning framework is called “passive learning”. It is an important ability to reproduce the target movements as same as is instructed. In sports, it is also important to perform movements as is adaptively planned by learners themselves. In this paper, we carry out a preliminary study of an effect of haptic guidance on hand-moving speed learning task. As a result, in the hand-moving speed learning, the haptic teaching was as good as visual teaching that is generally said to be dominantly powerful in motor learning.
