Change of Softness Perception under Multi-Fingered Pseudo-Haptics Representation

Abstract

Conventional studies on softness perception under pseudo-haptics employed deformation of two-dimensional images of fingers and an object. In this paper, we propose and evaluate a method using three-dimensional computer-generated images to present pseudo-haptics information by manipulating the angle of each finger joint displayed in VR space using hand tracking. At the same time, we also considered the differences between individuals.
