Tactile Arrows-DiGITS: Component Generates Anisotropic Haptic Texture that Using Retractable Stopper

Abstract

This paper describes the invention of a new method of DiGITS called "anisotropic haptic texture-generating components using retractable stoppers" and its prototyping for confirming the principle of operation in order to expand the method of DiGITS.

After that, the author, who is the inventor of this method, will check the operation and describe the behavior and the tactile sensation obtained that.

Then, the author reflects these results and discusses the characteristics, improvements, and future potential of this method from the viewpoint of the inventor.
