In recent years, robot hands are used in the medical field. Therefore, if it is possible to actually convey the tactile sensation of the robot hand to the human hand, it is considered that more precise work can be performed. Ultimately, we are aiming for a system that can recognize the shape and the material of the touched object and the grasped object and faithfully reproduce it with the wearable device.
As the first step in developing the system, we have developed a wearable controller for use in teleoperation and propose a simple structure using an RC servomotor in order to inform the human hands that an object has touched.
