Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research established stimulation methods of visual, tactile, and auditory sensation which enhance each perception by cross modality in order to improve reality of virtual object in augmented reality environments. As the development of the proposed method we studied human perceptual characteristic to cross modality of somatic sensation such as vestibular sensation and deep sensation. This research also clarified that we can control occurrence of haptic illusion by using cross modality.
