Digital communication tools are limited to visual and auditory information and lack non-verbal information such as touch, which is important for communicating intentions and emotions. In order to solve this problem, the use of haptic technology in digital communication is attracting attention. In this study, we constructed a virtual handshake system that can reproduce distributed haptic information using a wearable device that presents skin deformation. Using the system, we experimentally obtained the correspondence between emotions and handshaking behavior, and constructed a demonstration of handshakes that can express differences in emotions based on the experimental results.
