Space operation type interfaces, which use gestures and hand movement in the air, provide intuitive interaction as a human interface. Haptic feedback for such interfaces will be able to enhance the operability and the reality. In this study, we propose a surface shape display method for the space operation type interfaces. We have proposed a surface shape display method by cutaneous sensation of friction through a pointing-stick-type tactile interface called 'Vib-Touch'. In this paper, we propose a new implementation of the surface shape display method to apply the space operation type interface. We evaluated the discrimination performance with the three virtual shapes in space by comparing with the real objects.
