Publication number: 20240157588Abstract: A handle includes a casing grippable by a user with a hand and fingers. The casing incorporates a first vibrating body and a second vibrating body. A control device is capable of generating a first sense of force in a first direction by controlling a vibration pattern of the first vibrating body. The control device is capable of generating a second sense of force in a second direction by controlling a vibration pattern of the second vibrating body. Then, the control device can control the vibration pattern of the first vibrating body and the second vibrating body so that the first direction and the second direction are different directions and an imaginary line headed toward the first direction from the first vibrating body and an imaginary line headed toward the second direction from the second vibrating body are not located on the same straight line.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 25, 2024Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: Shinji OKAWA, Koji OSAKI

Publication number: 20240157539Abstract: A handle includes a housing that includes a first vibrating body and a second vibrating body. A control device is able to generate a first force sensation in a first direction by controlling a vibration pattern of the first vibrating body and to generate a second force sensation in a second direction by controlling a vibration pattern of the second vibrating body. The control device is able to control so as to set the first direction and the second direction are the same. The control device is able to control the vibration pattern of the first vibrating body and the vibration pattern of the second vibrating body so as not to allow a virtual line directed from the first vibrating body in the first direction and a virtual line directed from the second vibrating body in the second direction to be positioned on a single line.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 25, 2024Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: Shinji OKAWA, Koji OSAKI
