Abstract

In an interactive augmented reality (AR) system, people are, most of the time, immersed in an environment rich of visual and audio feedback. The sense of touch is lacking in most of the AR environment. We present an augmented reality system where people can see life-size virtual human avatar in a real environment, and be able to have a physical haptic interaction with the avatar.
