VR Gloves (my project)
Hey everyone, I know I've had my vr glove project under my projects for a while, but recently I've been having more free time and actually got started working on it the last week or so. The idea is...
Sorry all for not updating anything this past week. Life is (as usual) quite busy. As such, I haven't really gotten to work on it more. T_T
I did think about using a light system like that, and just compare the different brightness to it, but I figured it would be too inaccurate in the end. As stated before, best way would be to have a potentiometer on each joint of the finger. I'm glad it did work, even if only somewhat decently. (I always have a lot of theories on different systems, but I rarely work on them myself or see another project that uses it. The rift it self is very very similar to an idea I was working a long time ago. Again, glad it worked out for someone else)
I've got plenty of ideas to make it work, even with different sized fingers (to a point anyway). Which would reduce price. (pretty sure I went over all this so I'll just stop now.)
:D I'm glad you'd back it. Hopefully I get some spare time to flesh it out the rest of the way. Making a custom pcb and such would reduce costs considerably. Being an arduino, it's pretty easy to even add something like bluetooth. You can get a full serial over bluetooth chip for $3-4 now, so this could possibly be wireless in the end also. (probably would be best to be wireless, as long as there isn't too much added lag cause of it.)
