本文提出一种基于Fabric actuator的新型气压调节方法，可在沉浸式空间中为用户提供无视觉的直观方向感知，经实验验证适用于混合现实微操作的遥场景。
AI 中文摘要
近年来，沉浸式空间系统已在多个领域得到开发。沉浸式空间通常包含大量视觉信息，因此用户常无法获取所需信息，为此人们开发了多种通过触觉感知引导用户的方法。然而，这些方法中许多在触觉感知的直观性方面存在局限，且需要练习才能熟悉触觉感知。Fabric actuator 是一种将织物与 McKibben 人工肌肉结合的可穿戴触觉设备，能为佩戴者提供表面触觉感知，该感知可覆盖身体大范围区域，且具有直观性，而非仅作用于身体某一部位。本文提出一种新型气压调节方法，该方法利用可穿戴 Fabric actuator 提供的表面触觉感知，实现全身运动引导。所提系统可在沉浸式空间中为用户提供无视觉信息的方向感知，通过受试者实验和统计数据分析评估了该系统的有效性，最后在混合现实空间中对执行微操作的用户进行了方向感知传递，以展示该系统在遥操作中的适用性。
英文摘要
In recent years, systems that utilize immersive space have been developed in various fields. Immersive spaces often contain considerable amounts of visual information; therefore, users often fail to obtain their desired information. Therefore, various methods have been developed to guide users toward haptic sensations. However, many of these methods have limitations in terms of the intuitive perception of haptic sensation and require practice for familiarization with haptic sensation. Fabric actuators are wearable haptic devices that combine fabric and McKibben artificial muscles to provide wearers with surface haptic sensation. These sensations can be provided to a wide area of the body with intuitive perception, instead of only to a part of the body. This paper presents a novel air pressure adjustment method for whole-body motion guidance using surface haptic sensations provided by a wearable fabric actuator. The proposed system can provide users with a directional sense without visual information in an immersive space. The effectiveness of the proposed system was evaluated through subject experiments and statistical data analysis. Finally, a directional sense presentation was conducted for users performing micromanipulations in a mixed-reality space to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed system for teleoperation.
