| Research Abstract |
In this research, a new index that indicates force sensitivity of tele-operation systems is proposed. Experimental results show correspondence of tendency between the value of the index and subjects' perception. Also, in order to enhance perception of force, methods to transform force information into thermal or air-jet stimulation of finger tips are proposed. Experimental results confirmed improvements of force perception by the proposed methods.
