We propose tactile estimation system by pressure distribution sensors. When a fabric actuator is used as a tactile transmission device, the pressure distribution measured at the reader side should be able to be reproduced at the follower side ideally. However, this is difficult to achieve with the current control resolution of fabric actuators. we aim to solve this problem by creating a system to estimate tactile sensation and transmitting the tactile indirectly as the tactile label. The results showed that for three subjects, the estimation performance exceeded 80%, except one tactile. One tactile sense was not correctly estimated in one subject because of the variety of contact with the same label.
