Title:

SomatoShift: A Wearable Haptic Display for Somatomotor Reconfiguration via Modifying Acceleration of Body Movement

Presenter(s):

• Takeru Hashimoto
• Shigeo Yoshida
• Takuji Narumi

Description:

We propose a wearable haptic device utilizing control moment gyroscopes and motion sensors to alter human somatic perception. It changes the sensation of body parts becoming heavier or lighter. The device has potential applications in avatar technology, sports, and assistive technology, offering a promising approach to enhancing somatic experience.
