| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, I propose a system for a haptic device for whole body to achieve augmented human. Recently, street dancing has attracted a great deal of attention. Almost all conventional training environments for street dancing have only visual information, such as watching videos. However, by contrast, the training in which trainers take trainees by the hand and teach them step by step has haptic information. Given this information, more effective training environments for street dancing could be constructed by using haptic information. Deciding that the target task should be “keeping the beat”, this research designed and developed human-scale wire-driven haptic interface which enable street dance training. As a result of evaluation experiment, effectiveness of training using the proposed interface was confirmed.
