Abstract :
To deliver a realistic presence of virtual objects with a simple haptic display in an augmented reality system, we have developed a wearable haptic display to present the sensation of weight and inertial force of the virtual objects. In this study, we developed an augmented reality application for our haptic device that represents the dynamics of the virtual objects inside a real box based on a physical simulation. We implemented the prototype system to represent a virtual ball in a real box, and evaluated the capability of our proposed method.
