Abstract: The purpose of this study is to analyze the usefulness of 3D immersive stereoscopic virtual reality technology in applications that provide tactile sensations. Diverse experiments show that the haptic 3D visualization method presented in a 3D stereoscopic space using headsets is more intuitive, accurate and immersive than the haptic 3D visualization method displayed in 3D flat displays. In particular, the intuitiveness has been significantly improved in a stereoscopic 3D visualization rather than flat 3D visualization. In spite of the general superiority of the stereoscopic 3D visualization, it is mentionable that the precise operation performance has not been greatly improved in the elaborate object movements. It means that users can recognize and manipulate the position of objects more quickly in 3D stereoscopic immersive VR environments, however, the precise operation does not benefit greatly in the 3D stereoscopic visualization. Note that the degree of game immersion is remarkably augmented in the case of using 3D stereoscopic visualization.
