Abstract

Visual and auditory senses are mainly used as sensory information in VR contents. In addition to these senses, we consider olfactory and haptic senses together aiming at better quality of VR contents. We created such VR contents and did evaluation experiment. We provided smell using olfactory display using solenoid valves with high speed switching and haptic sense using wire driven haptic display. In experiment, we added olfactory and/or haptic sense to visual/audio senses and tested whether user perception changes according to the provided sense. As a result, we found that a user's sensation was enhanced after adding olfactory and haptic information to visual/audio information.
