Grasping is a critical skill for interacting with virtual objects. In our demonstration, we introduce a realtime system that enables users to share grasping experiences in a virtual reality (VR) environment. This system involves one participant using the WeArt TouchDiver haptic glove for direct interaction with virtual spheres enclosed in cylinders, while another participant experiences passive touch. The latter observes the interaction on a screen and receives identical haptic feedback via their TouchDiver glove. To assess the effectiveness of this shared experience, we conducted a size discrimination experiment exploring the impact of different touch modes on size perception.
