Abstract

Dexterity for fine manipulation requires information from multiple skin contacts to detect the external forces applied on a tool. In this study, we developed a haptic interface to represent the external forces or stiffness of objects so that the pressure distributions at the contact pads can be controlled by using suction stimuli. The original interface had the drawback of being unable to represent high-frequency force sensations such as friction and collision because of air stimuli have large-scale characteristics. Thus, we integrated vibrotactile stimuli into the interface to represent high-frequency force sensations.
