To celebrate, game designer Matt Mechtley has augmented it with Bluetooth and accelerometer chips for a more modern take on the hand peripheral -- think of it as a more assimilated version of the Wiimote-embedded glove we covered in 2006. If you're It’s your garden variety RC helicopter, at least at first blush. But with a bit closer examination, you’ll soon learn that you can control it using an accelerometer infused glove. A small joy stick within thumbs reach allows you to control the To build the glove what appears to be a standard leather glove was equipped with an Arduino processor and an accelerometer. The glove electronics were programmed using standard IR code. Communication protocols were implemented that allow arm and hand “Augmented Reality & Virtual Reality Market by Technology Types, Sensors (Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Haptics), Components (Camera, Controller, Gloves, HMD), Applications (Automotive, Education, Medical, Gaming, Military) & by Geography - Global Forecast The glove could also be used in video games, sports training, or physical rehabilitation. The accelerometers feed the position information through lightweight copper wires to a printed circuit board, which sits on the back of the hand. When the user makes In their glove, a total of 15 flex sensors in the fingers measure the degree of bending while a compass, accelerometer, and gyroscope determine the motion of the glove through space. The sensor data are processed by a microcontroller on the glove then sent .

Karplus’ gloves are unique in the industry thanks to an accelerometer that allows each light to change color and speed in response to movement. Ambience member Kevin Duong, a third-year biology major, explained gloving as “an art form” in which the It also has an accelerometer, a gyroscope and a magnetometer Pledge at least £1,200 (~$2,000 USD) on Kickstarter to receive a Mi.Mu glove as a reward. Hopefully in a few years the glove will be affordable enough, so we can wash away all the hate In this, the 20th anniversary year of the Nintendo Power Glove, modder Matt Mechtley tricks it out with an accelerometer and bluetooth. But he still has to code some games to take advantage of it. It's been 20 years now since Mattel released the Power So Heck paired an accelerometer with a gyroscope to an Arduino controller Check out all the nerdy goodness of the Xbox “power glove” episode of The Ben Heck Show below. .
