“…The development of the glove utilised a rapid prototyping methodology with various features trialled and refined to produce each of the final designs [14]. In particular, the prototyping involved considerable experimentation with different types of glove fabric, sensor and mounting for the haptic and other electronic components [15].…”

This paper outlines the ongoing development of a wearable haptic game interface, in this case for controlling a flight simulator. The device differs from many traditional haptic feedback implementations in that it combines vibrotactile feedback with gesture based input, thus becoming a two-way conduit between the user and the virtual environment. The device is intended to challenge what is considered an "interface" and sets out to purposefully blur the boundary between man and machine. This allows for a more immersive experience, and a user evaluation shows that the intuitive interface allows the user to become the aircraft that is controlled by the movements of the user's hand.
