Abstract(in English) In spite that superior abilities of visually impaired in tactile sensation are confirmed in some studies, the number of systems using the superior abilities is not so many. In this study, we have developed and evaluated an interactive system using the superior abilities of visually impaired to make them enjoy. We employed TECHTILE toolkit as the device to display tactile information, and made several games displaying various types of tactile information. In addition, experiments were performed to evaluate the system.
