Abstract
The present invention provides a device configured to present the feel of a plane or an object surface to a user using equipment configured to generate physical vibration such as a vibration motor or the like. A plurality of vibration motors including an eccentric rotor are put on a human body, and torque generated at the vibration motor along with an angular velocity fluctuation is provided to a skin surface in the horizontal direction with a different timing. Alternately generating torque by the plurality of vibration motors enables the user to perceive a plane or an object surface.
