Road to VR

SEPTEMBER 10, 2016

I had a chance to catch up with the lead designer of Manus VR , Stijn Stumpel , at GDC where we compared Manus VR to Leap Motion, talked about how the flex sensors work, the use cases where having tracked hands makes sense, their extremely polished demo called Pillow’s Willow, and where they’re going in the future.

For example, they could be used for training in industrial facilities, physical therapy, rehab, real estate tours, the list goes on. In one case study, a multiple-sclerosis patient used Cybershoes along with a Leap Motion sensor to walk around a subway system while using her hands to push doors.

It was a multiplayer training experience about work safety where I (the trainer) could do the experience in VR and all other people could watch me while I did it. I also tried a demo that employed Taiwanese gloves and scent emission hardware. At Digiblock, I had the pleasure of trying a Cave for the first time.

Concept picture of SenseGlove used in industrial settings for VR training. It has not been thought for games, but more for enterprise uses like training. The finger tracking can be improved and it is worse than the one of Leap Motion, also because every finger has not all its DOF tracked.

Prior to the demo, the prospect of testing these gloves was an exciting one. Retailing for nearly £5,000 GBP (more than Magic Leap One or an HTC Vive Pro Eye) Manus Prime Haptic offers full finger tracking thanks to Flexpoint’s Bend Sensors as well as individual haptics for each finger and thumb.

I think I even tried to get an interview with John Carmack, like, the day after he did a demo at E3. They found medical companies that were more interested in how precise those hand controllers could be, so they started doing demos, like a virtual catheter insertion and other kinds of medical training demos.

This is a great feature, even if I think that to be really great it has to be properly tuned with the companion app: while doing demos with my Gear VR, that automatically shows the notifications of my Samsung phone, I was really afraid of what my friend could send me.
