Abstract(in English) This paper describes a 3-D CAD system in which a user feels as if he/she actually holds a design object and directly manipulates it, The following two techniques to achieve this feature. One is the input device with a force/torque sensor that measures force imposed by a user. The outputs of the sensor are connected to the commands for object deformation. The device of the system is regarded as the design object itself because a user can passively feel registrant force from the object. The other technique is the adequate brightness among the input device, a graphical image (the design object) and user's hands. A human can not perceive a dark object when a bright image is overlaid on the object. Also, he/she can not perceive a dark image when a bright object is seen through the image. Using this phenomenon, the dark input device is always camouflaged by the object image, and user's hands adequately occlude the image.
