Immersion Corporation, a developer and licensor of touch feedback technology, announced a wireless version of its high-accuracy CyberGlove hand motion-capture glove. The new Wireless CyberGlove system will help video game and film animators increase production efficiency. Instead of needing a separate setup for hand motion capture, the freedom of wireless will allow the recording of hand motion along with full body movement.

The new lightweight, wireless glove takes up to 22 high-accuracy joint-angle measurements. The glove works with all versions of Immersion’s VirtualHand software that transforms hand and finger motions into real-time digital joint-angle data that feeds directly into the most popular motion-capture applications.

Ergonomic interface electronics comfortably strap onto an actor’s forearm or upper arm and use the industry-standard Bluetooth communications protocol to supply a wire-free 30 m3 workspace.
