The aim of the project is to create a 3D game of haptic technology which had to evaluate by heuristic evaluation. Nowadays, many designs of non- immersive environment are not fulfilled user’s requirement. Therefore, this 3D game also will get the data but also experience from normal user and expert user to improve the environment of the 3D game to approach user’s requirements. Besides, the heuristic evaluation allows us to identify the serious issues and offer a good management for designer to get an effective non- immersive environment redesign. The reason of using haptic technology in this 3D game, because most of the game are using keyboard and mouse to control it, and most of people have some gesture problem which cause by using incorrect gesture while using it. Throughout this project, the advantage of haptic technology will be exposed. Other than that, a haptic device will be use after this project complete. Haptic technology will get the electromyography from user to interact with non- immersive environment. Electromyography was originally coming from the medicine field but it can be used in the information technology field to create more advance technology to improve the quality of life of human beings. Finally, a 3D game of haptic technology which evaluate based on heuristic evaluation was generated.
