A tangible haptic feedback box for mixed reality billiard in tight spaces

Abstract

This paper presents a system for a simulated billiard game with two players and an emphasis on haptic feedback. We devised a feedback box that is responsible for generating the inputs and providing immediate haptic feedback to the user. The simulation runs as an AR application and the player can use a real queue to hit the real ball. Although the haptic feedback is precise due to the usage of a real billiard ball and queue, the input accuracy of the angle and impulse measurement is limited.
