Interactive Mobile Augmented Reality system using a vibro-tactile pad

Abstract

Smart phone is good platform for hand-held Augmented Reality. As smart phone users grow, Augmented Reality applications are increasing. This paper proposes an interactive Mobile Augmented Reality system using a vibro-tactile pad. The proposed system can provide vibro-tactile feedback for realistic immersive experience. For interactive Mobile Augmented Reality, We focus on providing expressions augmented object's movements and location information using vibration motors. Through simple memory test application, we prove that the proposed system is useful for providing intuitive knowledge for information of augmented object's movements and location.
