Summary:We propose a configuration that combines a conventional video call system and a contour-based projected hand by a laser scanning projector that works in a bright room. To increase the presence of the projected hand in the remote site, we focus on the projected hand’s visual effects. From the perspective of minimal design, we confirmed the importance of minimal design for the palm shape of the contour-based projected hand. In addition, we investigated the characteristics of promising hovering and contact states on the contour-based projected hand. As a result, we confirmed that the shadow effect and the transition expression from hovering to contact were suitable for expressing hovering and contact with the contour-based projected hand.
