A touch sense interface provided with an arm mechanism including an arm joint,
a touch sense finger base arranged in the arm mechanism, and touch sense fingers
arranged on the base. The touch sense fingers each include a fingertip engaging
portion, which engages an operator's finger, and a finger joint. A first detection
unit detects the position and posture of the operator's hand to generate a position
and posture detection signal. A control unit, which is connected to the first detection
unit, controls the arm joint in accordance with the position and posture detection
signal and arranges the base opposed to the hand of the operator. A second detection
unit, which is electrically connected to the control unit, detects the movement
of each fingertip and generates a movement detection signal. The control unit controls
the active finger joint in accordance with the movement detection signal.
