PURPOSE: A method and apparatus for providing users with haptic information on a 3-D object are provided to display haptic in a virtual word by reading out haptic information during rendering and storing haptic information based on haptic attribute images of 6 pages. CONSTITUTION: A bounding box generator(150) generates hexagonal bounding box near a 3D object, and a depth information acquisition unit(160) acquires depth information image for each plane of the bounding box. A haptic attribute generation unit(170) generates 6 haptic attribute images corresponding to the 6 depth information images. A haptic device(140) provides users with haptic attribute held by the 6 haptic attribute images. |
