Abstract :
We developed a force display system for atomic bonding state in material. The force display aims to help scientists make discoveries by improving their perception for the atomic world. This paper describes the overview of the force display system in which we can feel the atomic bonding state with the dynamic force. We propose a control method of the force display device and a decision procedure of the scaling factors between the atomic and human worlds. The validity of the force display device is proved by the virtual experiment of atomic bonding states with various kinds of material
