Abstract

This paper proposes a kind of tactile display using composite materials. Proposed display consists of a core honeycomb structure and a bi-elastic material. The system has both the endoskeltal and the exoskeltal properties. Then, it can realize an elastic display strategy for rendering softness based on these flexible materials. In the system, pressed by an actuator, the display is stretched with its apparent stiffness changed. The internal honeycomb structure ensures that the display has the same stiffness value everywhere on its surface. Thus, we can control the stiffness of the display only with one actuator. At first, the structure and the control strategy of the display was expressed. Then, basic principal of the tactile display was examined. Some experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed display. In addition, robustness of the material structure was examined.
