Abstract(in English) This paper described a method of synthesizing haptic sensation to the whole human body using vibrators in large working volume virtual environment. In such environment, haptic devices must have following characteristics, (1)large working volume (2)light weight (3)easy to move. Vibrating device is satisfied such characfteristics. By setting some vibrating device to user's body and controlling the pattern of the vibration, we can feel the virtual object. We developed a vibrating device in CABIN(Computer Augmented Booth for Image Navigation). Using this system, we can feel virtual objects and walls through the whole body and walk virtual world to avoid interfering these walls. The effectiveness of this system is tested through the some experiments.
