One of the hurdles to overcome in order to develop an immersive metaverse experience is mimicking the sense of touch. One of Meta’s Reality Labs Research teams develops comfortable, customizable, and most importantly tactile gloves that meet this challenge. These gloves can reproduce a range of sensations in virtual worlds, including texture, pressure, and vibration.
Development work on the gloves is still in the early stages. However, it is considered with certainty that it will be developed over time and will provide a realistic experience. As they become more practical, Meta will sell these gloves, allowing you to pair them with a VR Headset, headset or goggles. The firm said the gloves will transform your augmented reality experiences and make them more immersive. The company has been working on tactile gloves for the last seven years and is developing new techniques, technologies and disciplines to be used in this field.
