Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel stick-type interface, the "HaCHIStick," for musical performance on a tablet PC. The HaCHIStick is composed of a stick with an embedded vibrotactile actuator, a visual display, and an elastic sheet on the display. By combining the kinesthetic sensation induced by striking the elastic sheet with vibrotactile sensation, the system provides natural haptic cues that enable the user to feel what they strike with the stick, such as steel or wood. This haptic interaction would enrich the user's experience when playing the instruments. The interface is regarded as a type of haptic augmented reality (AR) system, with a relatively simple setup.
