            Abstract : 
The purpose of this paper is to study shape perception in the situation where the target object is interfered by other objects. This paper proposes a friction model that updates shear stiffness function of objects, in order to produce physics-based friction force in the situation of indirect touch. The result of experiments indicated that friction force influenced accuracy of indirect perception of convex shape.
