| Having the technology of digital restoration of cultural heritage advanced, it is possible to explore cultural heritage in virtual environment with vivid graphic images and rich stereo sound. For more realistic virtual environment, touching the virtual objects is important event that should be considered when building a virtual world of cultural heritage. This paper investigates the use of a haptic feedback device to interact with virtual Korean traditional instruments, called Sa-mool, in Buddhist temple and provide the user with tactile cues during playing the instruments and touching the objects. In the research, the data of degree of smoothness, friction, and hardness from Korean traditional building material-stone, wood, and leather have been collected and normalized as Korean cultural heritage haptic interface. Those data are presented as an application of playing 4 percussion Korean Buddhist temple instruments, Sa-mool(temple drum, Buddhist temple bell, wooden fish, cloud shaped gong), and users can play the instruments, which are usually not open to public, with haptic device while walking through the virtual Keum-san-sa, old Korean Buddhist temple in Gimje-city, Jeonbuk, Korea. |
