Human beings have been studying how to turn virtual things into reality since a long time ago. With the changes of the times and the development of technology, VR technology has gradually With the advent of holographic projection technology, people are finally visually satisfied. But this is not the end. People hope that in addition to seeing, they can also touch and feel the existence of these virtual scenes, so technicians once again opened up their imaginations. Recently, H2L Company from the University of Tokyo in Japan has successfully designed a game controller that can be worn on the hand. Unlike ordinary handles and joysticks, its function is to bring players a sense of touch.
This magical controller is called UnlimitedHand. It is specially designed for virtual reality experience. Players only need to strap it to their arm before playing the game. It has built-in muscle sensors and 3D dynamics. Sensors allow players to experience the touch of the virtual world. Different tactile sensations such as touching, holding, holding, pushing, pulling, and grabbing can all be felt realistically. Therefore, different objects in the virtual world can also be distinguished directly through touch, and it can also identify various gestures of the player. , and provide players with accurate touch strength (such as the feeling of weight when picking up items) based on analysis.
In addition to the tactile feedback function, UnlimitedHand’s built-in EMS muscle stimulator can also directly emit weak current to stimulate the muscles of the hand, so that the players’ fingers and palms can also be affected by the touch and physics of the virtual world. effect. For example, when a player picks up an object in the virtual world, in addition to feeling the weight, the players own hand will also be stimulated by the current and unconsciously sink (become heavier). The feedback effect is to this extent.It can be considered outstanding.
UnlimitedHand is currently raising funds on kickstarter, and has successfully raised funds for listing. It is now accepting pre-orders at a preferential price of US$212. The earliest batch of products is expected to be launched in March next year. Those who are interested Players should hurry up and book.
