Imagine if your holding an apple( in the game ), if you apply mild pressure the glove will resist but apply enough force and you can crush the apple. It would also be able to create the sensation of touching a particular material (glass, metal, plastic, etc). There are some issues though. The gloves would have to fit everyones hand and I'd assume that they would drain batteries rather quickly. Anyway, I just thought of this and I don't know if its been done yet. |
It's been done already, but not on such a large scale as console gaming. It was, and still probably is, available in "commercially" in VR walkthroughs similar to the ones architects and engineers use.
