Abstract
We propose a wearable ungrounded haptic display to present the mass of a virtual object. We found that the deformation of the fingerpads can generate a reliable gravity sensation even when proprioceptive sensation on the wrist or arm is absent. We implemented the prototype device, which has a simple structure comprising dual motors, and then evaluated the recognition ability of the virtual mass sensation presented on the operator's finger by our proposed method.
