Some controllers incorporate haptics but incorporating the technology into wearable devices is the next step that some producers are exploring. There are a couple of competitors in the haptic wearables field. The only wearable with more touch-points is the $685 SoundShirt. Right now, most of us experience virtual reality through headsets. The video aspect can feel immersive. The audio aspect can feel immersive. However, “immersion” should involve all of the senses. MORE

“Wearable Wars” is AR Insider’s mini-series that examines how today’s wearables will pave the way and prime consumer markets for AR glasses. Each installment will profile a different tech leader and their respective moves and motivations in wearables. . That’s still the case, but a less-discussed product class could have a greater impact in priming consumer markets for AR glasses: wearables. We’ll start this Wearables Wars series by looking at Amazon. MORE
Applying that principle back to AR, could wearability be the next era’s mobility? And if so, should it represent AR glasses’ V1 design target, which then evolves over time towards advanced AR functionality; versus starting with advanced AR then sizing-down over time towards wearability? With the wearability principle in mind, Ostendo is betting on a sleeker form factor for AR glasses that emerge and scale in the near-term as a function of mainstream consumer viability. MORE
