QoE assessment of will transmission using haptics: Influence of network delay

This paper deals with collaborative work in which two users lift and move an object cooperatively to eliminate a target in a 3-D virtual space. In the work, the users transmit their wills about the movement direction of the object to each other by haptics. By experiment, we investigate the influence of network delay on will transmission using haptics. As a result, we demonstrate that it becomes more difficult to transmit the wills accurately as the network delay increases.
