What haptic gloves provide is an evolution from a traditional XR controller input with a joystick. The technology elevates the overall user experience and adds value via realistic simulated feelings of pressure, weight, texture, and heat. There are other forms of haptic feedback devices outside of haptic gloves.

How can the right combination of hardware and software instantly transport us into a new world? An Introduction Virtual reality creates an end-to-end mechanism that replaces our natural “real-world” environment with an immersive simulation. It creates a simulated environment you can effectively interact with.
