In this paper, We introduce the glove mouse using a Gyroscope, acceleration sensor, Pin-type Viboratctile Display Device and USB HID. The device recognize a user's wrist by Gyroscope and acceleration sensor in the glove and transmit the data to USB dongle which is recognized the manufactured mouse by Blutooth. Also, using a special application, We transmit the tactile information to user through the Pin-type Vibrotactile Display. We implement wearable system in the glove except USB device. If user want to use general spatial mouse, we recognize mouse USB dongle only without another application. If user want to feel the tactile sensationn, we can use by connecting PC serial communication port to USB dongle.

This paper presents a vibrotactile space mouse which use pin-type vibrotactile display modules and a gyroscope chip. This mouse is a new interface device which is not only an input device as an ordinary space mouse but also a tactile output device. It consists of a space mouse which use gyroscope chip and vibrotactile display modules which have been developed in our own laboratory. Lately, by development of vibrotactile display modules which have small size and consume low power, vibrotactile displays are available in small sized embedded systems such as wireless mouses or mobile devices. Also, development of new sensors like miniature size gyroscope by MEMS technology enables manufacturing of a small space mouse which can be used in the air not in a plane. The vibrotactile space mouse proposed in this paper recognizes motion of a hand using the gyroscope chip and transmits the data to PC through Bluetooth. PC application receives the data and moves pointer. Also, 2 by 3 arrays of pin-type vibrotactile actuators are mounted on the front side of the mouse where fingers of a user's hand contact, and those actuators could be used to represent various information such as gray-scale of an image or Braille patterns for visually impared persons.

최근 전자기기에서 시각 및 청각과 함께 촉각 디스플레이가 정보를 출력하는 중요한 수단으로 부각되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 촉각 정보 출력을 위한 소형진동촉각(vibrotactile) 디스플레이 모듈을 개발하였다. 개발한 모듈은 주파수와 진폭을 독립적으로 조절할 수 있으며 핀이 직접 피부에 자극을 주기 때문에 몸체 전체가 떨리는 기존의 진동모터보다 정밀하고 다양한 촉각 표현을 할 수 있다. 또한 고전압을 이용하는 Piezo 방식과 달리 낮은 전력으로 동작이 가능하여 휴대장치에 직접 장착할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다.
