  • Patent number: 11385723
    Abstract: A haptic information presentation system uses a human sensory characteristic or illusion to suitably control a physical quantity, and causes a person to feel a force which cannot exist physically, or a haptic sensory physical characteristic.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 25, 2021
    Date of Patent: July 12, 2022
    Assignees: National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
    Inventors: Norio Nakamura, Yukio Fukui, Masataka Sakai, Natsuo Koda, Yosuke Iizuka
  • Patent number: 11287888
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed in which in a conventional non-grounding man-machine interface having no reaction base on the human body and for giving the existence of a virtual object and the impact force of a collision to a person, a haptic sensation of a torque, a force and the like can be continuously presented in the same direction, which cannot be presented by only the physical characteristic of a haptic sensation presentation device. In a haptic presentation device, the rotation velocity of at least one rotator in the haptic presentation device is controlled by a control device, and a vibration, a force or a torque as the physical characteristic is controlled, so that the user is made to conceive various haptic information of the vibration, force, torque or the like.
