ABSTRACT
We proposed a new tactile presentation device for a palm to tele-operate a robot hand mounted on a rescue robot. The proposed device presents a tactile sensation on the back of the operator’s hand rather than the palm to avoid interference. The required specification for the device were determined through subject experiments conducted in our previous studies. In particular, we developed a prototype device through suction stimulation with the required specifications, confirmed that the device can present tactile sensation correctly, and discussed the results.
