Improving Remote Interaction
The haptic gloves are designed to reduce latency and increase the accuracy of feedback, making remote operations feel more immediate and intuitive. For example, a notable test involved using these gloves to type a message on a keyboard situated over 5,000 miles away, demonstrating the critical role of tactile feedback in performing everyday tasks remotely.
