Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a new system that conveys the virtual contact feeling to people. Virtually, we make the real contact feeling that they touch the tip of their finger to the object. As the friction exits between the tip of their finger and the object, we make the friction, and will be able to consummate the virtual contact feeling. Nowadays, only the visual information of the object is conveyed to the user on the screen on Web. By this technique, not only the visual information of the object but also the real contact feeling will be able to be conveyed to the user in the near future. And, we think that even use as a training system for the medical treatment and use as the braille system which even visual disability people can use the Internet. The real contact feeling of the object needs comparatively high frequency. Then, first of all, we focus the real contact feeling that is made from low frequency. At present, we study to make the real contact feeling without friction
