Consideration on tactile virtual reality technology for telerobot

Telemanipulator became one of refocused fields with the help of various technology integration concerned. As one of key technologies much simpler opeartion of manipulator by operators and feedback method to operator can be counted. For such purpose virtual reality techniques are being implemented and in this paper tactile feeling among human 5 feelings will be discussed. Movement manipulation in free space and gripper manipulation methods are discussed in combination with operator's organs. Tactile signal of telemanipulator's gripper is also integrated into tactile VR control system. Such tactile VR technology is regarded as one of important roles for advanced robot technology.
