Abstract(in English) The goal of this research is to construct an expression technique which creates a feeling as if the virtual tool became a part of body when a user exploited the tool. A novel expression method is required that a virtual tool is non-separable from the user's body for that purpose. In this research, authors pay our attention to shadow, because a shadow of user's body is non-separable from the user's body. And we constructed a virtual tool interface system which integrates two expressions of a virtual shadow of a physical tool and a three-dimensional representation of a virtual tool. Furthermore, we conducted two experiments on interacting with virtual and physical objects while using the virtual tool: a questionnaire method and a unique method based on cross modal interference.
