[3F1-01] Prototype for a Force Haptic Feedback System Using Vibrotactile and Electric Muscle Stimulation for Sports Experience Sharing

○Hirohiko Hayakawa¹, Kouta Minamizawa¹ (1. Keio University Graduate School of Media Design)

In research aimed at sharing experiences through the body, feedback of tactile information and electric muscle stimulation (EMS) is often used. Meanwhile, sensing techniques such as acceleration, gyroscope, or motion capture are often used to acquire body motion information. However, the use of a large-scale measuring device is a factor that hinders physical movement in sports. Therefore, in this research, we propose a system to share sports experience by generating output information of EMS based on audio information and presenting visual, audio and vibrotactile information.
