[comp.ai] Powerglove/Dataglove

russell@minster.york.ac.uk (02/20/90)

Has anyone out there the addresses of the companies who
make the Powerglove
and the Dataglove?

Also, a related question, and one I need an answer for as
soon as possible :)

Has anyone the spec. for the above, in terms of their
position/angle info., the
number of joints that are sensed, etc. etc.

Any and all help appreciated.

Russell.

One of the true pioneers of the "data glove" and "data suit" technologies is
Jaron Lanier of VPL Research Inc. located in Redwood City, California.
The technology doesn't come cheaply, though.  Expect about $8800 for
a data glove alone.
