Abstract

A tactile transmission system () including a tactile transmission device () and a different tactile transmission device () includes a vibration measurement unit () that measures a vibration generated at the tactile transmission device (), a calculation unit that calculates perception information specified from the vibration measured by the vibration measurement unit (), a conversion unit that converts a signal related to the vibration into a predetermined frequency while maintaining the perception information calculated by the calculation unit, and a signal output unit that causes a vibrator () of the different tactile transmission device () to output a converted signal converted by the conversion unit as an output vibration. A bidirectional tactile transmission system including a tactile transmission device and a different tactile transmission device includes: a vibration sensor configured to measure a vibration generated at the tactile transmission device; a calculator configured to calculate perception information specified from the vibration measured by the vibration sensor; a convector configured to convert a signal related to the vibration into a predetermined frequency while maintaining the perception information calculated by the calculator; and signal output processor circuitry configured to cause a vibrator of the different tactile transmission device to output a converted signal converted by the converter as an output vibration, wherein, similarly, the different tactile transmission device causes a vibrator of the tactile transmission device to output a vibration generated at the different tactile transmission device as an output vibration.
