To do this, a kind of haptic skin is attached to the handle. This is currently still done in conjunction with the 3D controller from HTC Vive. The effect is achieved by pumping air into the skin folds. However, this requires a compressor, which has to be wired up and consumes a lot of energy. It remains to be seen whether the whole thing can be realised for home use. Gaming arcades would be more likely.<\/p>\n<p>A prototype will be presented at the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/SIGGRAPH\">Siggraph 2017<\/a> presented. Swords with different grips are demonstrated, all of which feel different. Of course, this also works with pistols and all kinds of other objects that are supposed to feel as if you are holding a real object in your hand. A sponge, for example, should feel different to a stone. This kind of technology would certainly enhance VR experiences significantly.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-6558-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" loop=\"1\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/youtube\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=PHnmXoOtPS0&#038;_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=PHnmXoOtPS0\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=PHnmXoOtPS0<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-6558-2\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" loop=\"1\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/youtube\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hTMQD1sfxD0&#038;_=2\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hTMQD1sfxD0\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hTMQD1sfxD0<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>Source: VRODO<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Robotics scientists at New York's Cornell Private University are collaborating with Nvidia to research a 3D\/VR controller that can change its shape to...","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":6560,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 -
