TACTILE STIMULATION DEVICE AND APPARATUS USING THE SAME

摘要

There are provided a tactile stimulation device that is suitable for portable apparatuses by meeting all requirements such as miniaturization, low power consumption, low noises, prompt response time and sufficient physical force, and an apparatus using the same. The tactile stimulation device may be useful to provide a sufficient level of physical stimuli by arranging a plurality of linear ultrasonic actuators to move linearly in a vertical direction to any of skin contact surfaces and stimulating the skin in a vertical direction under the control of the linear movement of the linear ultrasonic actuators.
