Abstract

In the existed studies, interaction system involving force and touch feedback, have been scarely suggested any research. Therefore, we focus on touch and force-feedback activities in interaction with real human. In this paper, we propose the interaction system which combines an immersive virtual environment with human-scale haptic interface. And we implement reactive virtual human that user can visual-and force feedback. With the implemeted system, we developed Virtual Catch Ball system. Through this experience, we confirmed that our system have the potential to succeed for a novel communication channel. We desire that our approach can be utilized in creating a more natural and intuitive interaction.
