HAPTIC INFORMATION PRESENTATION SYSTEM AND METHOD
First Claim
1. A haptic information presentation method comprising:
- generating a physical quantity comprising at least one of a vibration, a torque and a force;
presenting a sensory quantity to a human body to be perceived by said human body, said sensory quantity comprising at least one of a vibration sensation, a torque sensation and a force sensation; and
controlling said physical quantity comprising at least one of said vibration, said torque and said force,wherein said controlling comprises controlling said physical quantity based on a haptic sensory characteristic of a human body, wherein said haptic sensory characteristic represents a relationship between said physical quantity to be applied to a human body and said sensory quantity to be perceived by a human body.

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 can not 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.
