Abstract :
We present experimental results of traffic control of haptic media in a networked virtual environment. For the traffic control, we adopt dynamic temporal resolution control of haptic media. The control dynamically changes the packet transmission rate of haptic media according to the network load. By experiment, we evaluate the output quality of haptic media and demonstrate the effectiveness of the control.
