| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 資訊工程學研究所 === 107 === Utilizing the haptic technologies for enhancing the immersive experience has been widely adopted in the virtual reality (VR). Although the immersion could be successfully enhanced, the cost of many tactile feedback displays are still too high, and the hardware on the device also has its projection range and operating limit. In this thesis, we utilize particle effect with airflow-based tactile sensation for enhancing the haptic experience in the immersive environment. By integrating the visual effect and the haptic feedback system, we synthesize the visuotactile illusion to achieve enhanced sensory engagement in the VR. First, we conduct a user study to quantify the wind speed of our display based on people’s tactile sensation of the wind. After that, to show the potential of proposed technique, we conduct two user studies, where we adjust the speed and diffusion of particle, to explore the enhancement via the wind modalities on the immersive experience. Our results can be applied in VR applications, which utilize airflow-based tactile feedback for enhancement.
