The burns are provided by using Thermal Grill illusion. When user touches the thermal grill that presents Thermal Grill illusion. The user seems to have burned. However, since it is an illusion, the user does not injure like real burns. There are many things that we can not touch around us. For example, a crimson meteorite, too hot water in a hot spring, a bonnet for a car that is too hot. In this work, you can touch such things that are too hot to touch and you can experience burns.
