What are Virtual Reality Contact Gloves?
Contact Gloves are virtual reality (VR) devices equipped with the latest touch sensors and high-accuracy tracking, connected to virtual reality glasses to provide an integrated virtual reality experience.
The Most Important Uses of Virtual Reality Gloves (Contact Gloves)
This technology is expected to be used in virtual reality games. It is also anticipated to be incorporated into a suit equipped with the same technology and sensory feedback to simulate the experience of war through electronic circuits connected to virtual reality glasses. Furthermore, this technology is predicted to be utilized in performing surgical operations remotely using robots, thus finding application in the medical field. The potential development of this technology to serve other fields is also anticipated.
Composition of Contact Gloves
Contact Gloves consist of a group of small circuits and coils housing numerous tiny motors made of alloys that possess the property of transmitting sensation. These gloves work in conjunction with vibration motors to provide tactile feedback. They are also capable of accurately capturing finger and wrist movements and translating them into the virtual world. When not in use, Contact Gloves can operate for up to 6 hours, whereas during active use, their battery life is reduced to two hours. Charging them takes around two and a half hours.
Price of Contact Gloves
The price of Contact Gloves has reached $500 and is expected to be announced in July 2023.
