Abstract:
“Thermo-Paradox” is a thermal design display device to use the thermal tactile Physiological illusions that can interactively present patterns of warm and cool temperatures. The technological success of a compact 80-pixel, 9-inch thermal display allows text information to be conveyed by temperature, which has never before been achieved, and the device compactness increases the degree of freedom in presentation methods. We propose this unprecedented tactile expression as a device that can display thermal images that interactively match a visual image, using the tactile Paradoxical sensation produced by the ability to control the temperature of each pixel.
