There have been many studies on human motion guidance using tactile information instead of visual information. We can guide the hand without visual information and contact by using midair ultrasonic haptics. However, the conventional method has some problems such as unclear endpoint and limitation of the guiding direction. In this study, we propose a method of guiding a hand to the top of a cone by presenting a tactile virtual cone. And, we evaluate the effectiveness of our method through experiments on subjects. As a result, we were able to guide the subject's hand in the direction of the top of the cone.
