| Research Abstract |
We aimed to develop an affective communication system that conveys affection directly irrespective of sensory modalities, and shares others' affection each other, and evaluated its effects on users with psychological experiments. We showed that user's affection was changed by observing modified own facial expressions. Users' arousal level was changed by observing modified others' facial expressions during communications. Tactile stimulations on user's face changed user's rating on attractiveness of others' face, suggesting that the tactile stimulations elicited an implicit change of affection.
