Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Many capacitive touch panels detect the position and contact area of the user finger, and can estimate the vertical force from the change in the contact area. However, they cannot estimate the tangential force. This research aims to enable the estimation of tangential force using a gel layer, which deforms when a tangential force is applied. By measuring the finger motion of the user, we can estimate tangential force from the gel spring ratio. In this report, we compared the accuracy of the measurement of the tangential force using the displacement of the finger with that of the vertical force using the change in the contact area. We also confirmed the latter in the case that we use the gel layer. Using this input method, any part of the touch panel surface becomes a joystick, or virtual objects can be modeled by deforming them with the fingers.
