CyberTouch
CyberTouch is
a tactile feedback option for VTI's popular 18-sensor
CyberGlove instrumented glove.
CyberTouch was named the 1996
Virtual Reality Product of the Year in the hardware
category by CyberEdge Journal.
CyberTouch features small vibrotactile stimulators on each
finger and the palm of the CyberGlove. Each stimulator
can be individually programmed to vary the strength of
touch sensation. The array of stimulators can generate
simple sensations such as pulses or sustained vibration,
and they can be used in combination to produce complex
tactile feedback patterns. Software developers can design
their own actuation profile to achieve the desired
tactile sensation, including the perception of touching a
solid object in a simulated virtual world.
The CyberTouch tactile feedback option is essential to
anyone serious about using their hands to interact with
objects in a virtual world. Finally, there is a product
that lets you feel a virtual object and know it is
in your hand without having to look.
